Psychiatrist 's  Response
HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

If you want to wean off benzodiazepine and control underline depression as well as anxiety symptoms, better to take sedative antidepressant like mirtazapine or tramadol. That would help to get sound sleep and control depressive symptoms. These drugs are not available over the counter, you have to consult psychiatrist for them.

Thanks
