Brief Answer:
Use the minimal dose instead.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

Dizziness, nausea and difficulties walking are considered as minor side effects of namzaric use.

Instead of stopping it suddenly, I think to try to use the other form dose of namzaric (14mg/10 mg) for a couple of days, because sudden stopping may result in withdrawal symptoms too.

If symptoms persist after few days, namzaric should be stopped, and you can discuss with your spouse's treating Doctor next week.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Greetings.

Thank you Doctor Spaho. Medication received from mail order. Is there any way we could use a portion of the capsule continents on apple sauce at night until we can communicate with her doctor? It appears that sprinkling the capsule on apple sauce is an acceptable method.

Welcome back.

Yes, namzaric capsule content may be divided in half and can be taken with apple sauce.

You can try this way.

Take care.
