Tapering off process

2022-09-17 08:29:12
I am taking Epsolin 100 mg and Valprowin Chrono 200 mg tablets daily from last three months. How should i taper off the medicine safely and what is the right process? I met with an accident and was prescribed this medicine. My CT was normal. CT film and report is hereby attached. I have never had a seizure. I only had dizziness and headache. Is the same medicines are prescribed in case of blood clot? And what is the duration of medication? My treating doctor said you have a blood clot and you have to continue this medicine for 2 years. I am confused and unable to take right decision. Plz help

Ideally the medicine is to be continued for atleast 3 years once started as risk of seizure is there on stopping. Need further details and history on for why medication was started
