Brief Answer:
You need to stop it gradually

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.


You need to stop restyl gradually as it seems you are dependent on this and sudden withdrawal of restyl causing all these symptoms.

You need to reduce 0.25 mg every week for example
First week Restyl o.75 mg
Second week Restyl 0.50 mg
Third week Restyl o0.25 mg
Fourth week Restyl .25 mg half tablet and than stop

I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
