Hello dear
Could you provide me the details of the betablocker like dosage and composition? Usually to prevent withdrawal symptoms, these drugs should be slowly discontinued over a 6-to-10-day interval, cutting the dose by one-half every two to three days. However, it depends on the type of betablocker whether it’s long acting or a short acting one. You can consult me online for further management

Needs to gradually tapered off. Talk to your psychiatrist. Never stop drugs alone.
