Hi @Paliperidonetaker, and welcome to Taper Community! We don't have a specific drug profile yet for Paliperidone, but here is some information from drugs.com about it: https://www.drugs.com/mtm/paliperidone.html All antipsychotics can cause potential health issues, especially if taken long-term, so it's commendable you're researching how to safely taper off. Have a look at the Learn section on the left side to receive free education about Hyperbolic tapering and issues related to withdrawing from psychiatric drugs. We're glad you're here, and if you have any specific questions please let us know! Catina 🩷

Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.92 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Levothyroxine - 25 mcg
