My 23-year Old Son Who Weighs 170 Lbs. Has Been

My 23-year old son who weighs 170 lbs. has been taking 1 mg of Rieperidone per day for several years, to alleviate the irritability associated with autism. In what increments should we decrease his dosage, and how long should he stay at each level ? The goal is to wean him off the drug, or, alternatively, to find a lower dose that works for him. Thank you.
