Withdrawal of neulora 1 mg
I have been taking neulora 1 mg for past 5 months...so I decided to take half(0.5).
It has been 2 weeks since I have been taking 0.5 mg neulora at night.
Please doctor tell me how long should be the time to cut off neulora at each stage...how long should I continue 0.5 mg, then reduce further...
