Hello,

I will suggest you to consult a psychiatrist as the symptoms most likely you taking about is due to withdrawal of this drug. Do not try with drawing it without the consent of your doctor. As the tablet is very slow acting, its taper off should better be done very slowly under guidance of your doctor. If he is not in a crisis, kindly increase dose to 10mg initially to see if he improves. If he doesn't over next few weeks, you should better visit your primary care physician or a psychiatrist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
