Hello! My 82 year old husband with Alzheimer’s has been on 25mg of quetiapine daily for only 5 weeks. It was prescribed for sundowning and delusions. After 5 weeks the side effects (lethargy, ambulatory issues, anxiety) don’t seem worth it. I’m curious how much tapering I need to do since he’s only been on it 5 weeks. Your input is appreciated.
Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.28 mg Trazodone - 50 mg Synthroid - 25 mcg “Your brain and body know how to heal. Trust the process and keep going.” Please Note: I am not a healthcare professional. Any advice given is based on personal experience and that of others in the lay withdrawal community.
