Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 This won't be the first time I've just stopped taking it. They tell you not to " just stop " taking it because you may have a relapse. I wasn't taking it for depression, but to help me sleep at night. Thanks for the info. though.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 It is not safe to go off of any medication unless you are under doctor's care. My daughter did that with Paxil and got herself into a horrible mess. So please talk to your doctor before doing this. :-)) Take care, Irene > According to what I've read, it isn't 'safe' to just go off Elavil. > You're supposed to gradually reduce the dosage, but not stop all at once. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
