Tapering off Restoril

I'd like to know how to safely taper off Restoril.  I've been on 15 mg for about 3 weeks.  I took it every other nite or so the first two weeks.  Then every nite for 4 days.  The last four days I've taken it every other nite, trying to come off.  I don't want to take this anymore.  I know I haven't been on it long, but I've read not to stop it cold turkey.  I do experience withdrawal the days I don't take it.  Any suggestions would be great.  Thanks.

Hi Angel,

I am sorry but it is a violation of our terms of use (guidelines) to give out tapering information. that has to be, and should be, done by a doctor to insure your safety.

I wish you the best and hope you stick around here to talk during and after your taper. You will find lots of helpful members here.
