Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
First things first, just say to yourself that you are taking medications unnecessarily.
Gradually decrease the dosage and then after few days, make it once a day then once in 2-3 days then forget about it.
Consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.

By reducing it first to half the dose and continuing to halve the dose every few days you can try to forget it. Bear any discomfort and use will-power.
