Hello, REMERON is an antidepressant medication and can cause severe withdrawal symptoms if stopped abruptly. The best way to quit this medicine is to reduce the dose gradually. You can try reducing the dose by 7.5 mg every 10 days or 15 days. This way your body would keep on adjusting the lower dose provided in very efficient manner without causing any major withdrawal symptoms. Thanks
