General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

These drugs cause dependence hence an abuse liability. That is the reason that they are not stopped abruptly but are tapered down gradually to avoid the withdrawal effects like sleeplessness.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr. AJEET SINGH
