i just got on the program and i am on 4mg a day but it is split, 2 in the morning and 2 at night.i've only been on for a month and a half and i want to get off as soon as possible. I've started cutting a quarter off each pill a week, should i go slower, or does this seem like the right kind of taper. I have been cutting a quarter off the 2mg pill in the morning starting last monday, and plan to take a quarter off the night one starting next monday ect, ect, until there is just a crum left, so basically i plan to take a quarter of each pill away each week, i just want some advise as to if this is a good way to tapper off, or is there a different way to do it. I am on a program with my doctor.

What dose are you on, how long have you been taking it.....how do you get your sub?  We need more details in order to help you.
Have you tried weaning yet?  If so, what couldn't you tolerate, and what dose did you taper?
