I have been prescribed by my regular doctor the benzodiazepine medicine triazolam for quite a while. the beginning of this week, he told me I should stop the medication. I was on a dose of ,25mg and have now been cut to zero. I ve been experiencing really bad sweating, bad body temperature regulation (really hot and sweats then cold and chills, increased anxiety and nervousness, headaches. these are all getting a little difficult to bare.... especially the sweating. it has been 5 days since the doctor recommended stopping. should I, when uncomfortable, perhaps take a very small dose of triazolam? like half of what I was taking before? I m worried that I ve already gone this far in the withdrawal process and will taking the small dose undo any progress my body has made ridding itself of the triazolam?
Hello, Halcyon gets out of the body very fast. Indeed, it is not there for most of the day if it is taken as directed only once a day.  BUT, people get used to having it and there is psychological panic from taking it. Placebo (blinded administration) with patient consent and knowledge would be an option. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
