In reply to How Many Take a Benzo With Their Antidepressant?, posted by Phillipa on May 20, 2007, at 22:46:04
"How many take a benzo with their antidepressant and if you've been on benzos for a long time do you go off them if you're steady in you dose and don't raise them? Love Phillipa"
I take Valium 5mg TID (3x/day) along with Stablon. I've been on benzos for roughly 17 years on doctor's prescription and have found that I've needed less since being on Stablon and a gluten-free/casein-free diet. I lowered my dose from the typical 5mg QID (4x/day) down to 3x/day two months ago without major problems. It is still very effective and I might consider tapering the dosage more in the future if all keeps going well.
Take care!
