That will be a fast taper. You will experience some w/ds doing this!
Start off with 8 pills the first day. Take them whole. Do not chew or snort them. Space them 2 every 6 hours=8. Day 2 take 2 every 8 hours =6. Day 3&4 take 1.5 every 8 hours=9 Tl. Days 5 take 1 every 6 hours=4. Day 5 take 1 every 8 hour=3, Day 6 take 1 every 8 hour=3 day 7 take 1/2 every 6 hrs=2 Day 8 take 1/2 every 8 hours Day 9 take 1/2 every 12 hours=1, Day 10 take 1/2 day 11 take 1/2

Sorry this took so long, a lot going on at home. This will be pretty rough but a bit better than cold turkey.

Well in that case you need to taper off of them slowly to minimize withdrawals.

Do you have a good number of pills so we can set up a taper plan?
