> Withdrawing from Prozac. Taking 3- 1 mg lorazepam
Lorazepam can cause dependence rapidly. The withdrawal symptoms from lorazepam are usually much more severe than from Prozac. There is really no justification for using lorazepam to help you get off Prozac.
Prozac is not generally a difficult drug to stop, you just need to decrease the dose gradually. There is a syrup available which can help. You can simply reduce slowly eg. if you were on 20mg per day reduce to 16mg for a few weeks then 12mg for a few weeks and so on. You can use an oral syringe to measure the dose.
