Alicia Martin is a Canberra pharmacist (BPharm Hons, University of Canberra) and the founder of TaperMate. She is not a prescriber: she builds you a personalised, evidence-based taper plan for antidepressants, benzodiazepines, antipsychotics and other psychotropic medications, then works with your own GP or psychiatrist so the prescriptions and support match the plan. Telehealth consultations for patients anywhere in Australia, with progress check-ins along the way.
Pharmacist, not a prescriber — designs your taper plan and works with your own doctor to put it into practice
Alicia Martin, BPharm(Hons) is a Pharmacist — tapering & deprescribing serving Canberra, Australia, working with people who want to reduce or come off antidepressants, benzodiazepines, sleeping tablets and other psychiatric medication. Deprescribing means gradual, patient-paced reductions — often a hyperbolic taper, where each cut gets smaller as the dose gets lower — rather than stopping in large steps. Practitioners generally see clients within the country where they are registered.
