As there is risk of dependence over Lonazep if you continue taking it in long term. Dependence means you will need more frequent and higher dose of same medicine if you do not taper and stop it now. Libotryp DS is there to take care of Sleep, stomach pain, headache and IBS diarrhea, even if you gradually taper and stop lonazep 0.5. Regards.
Next Steps
Follow the advise of your psychiatrist
