Hello,
You can't stop it suddenly because you may have hypertension symptoms.
'You can use a diuretic or any other antihypertensive drug.
It may need 2-3 days to get out of the system and your symptoms will ease.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
