hi
hanks for using healthcare magic

Current dose of feydenal patch is high to maintain abstinence. If u want to stop takiny it, first gradually decrease the dose from 75 to 50 then upto 25 and then upto 12.5mcg. At 12.5mcg u would get any withdrawal symptoms and u would comfortably leave the feydenal patch. Rest u can discuss with ur psychiatrist.

Thanks
