Welcome @Vieva714! You can learn about Hyperbolic tapering in the Resources section. Have a look around the site....there's lots of helpful information here. Since you've been on Sertraline a long time, definitely start your taper slowly and reduce by no more than 10%. Slow and steady wins the race. Let us know if you have any questions and we'll be happy to help! You've got this! Catina 💗

Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.92 mg

Levothyroxine - 25 mcg
