Hi @Sir Michael Forrest! Welcome to Taper Community. Nice to have you here. Are you looking to taper off both of your drugs? It's best to taper only one at a time. It looks like from your signature you'll be tapering Vyvanse first? Have a look around the site. There is so much helpful information. The Learn section will help you learn about Hyperbolic tapering and withdrawal. Do you have any specific questions? Let us know and we'll be happy to help! Catina ❤️

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

I don't know anything about these meds. I don't know anything about attention deficit anyway, except how to see and notice it in people.
