How to Cross-Taper from Tablet to Liquid
May 27, 2026··
tips
Directly switching from tablets to liquid can cause issues for some people, so therefore a gradual switch can provide a smoother transition that is better tolerated by your nervous system. The following are guidelines that were shared on Surviving Antidepressants:
3/4 old, 1/4 new for 3 to 7 days
1/2 old, 1/2 new for 3 to 7 days
1/4 old, 3/4 new for 3 to 7 days
All new thereafter.
Stay at the same dose during the crossover period.
Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 17.92 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Levothyroxine - 25 mcg
