Abrupt discontinuation of Quetaplex and Venlafaxine should be avoided. It is recommended to gradually discontinue these drugs for a period of at least 1-2 weeks to minimize the risk of symptoms during withdrawal. Venlafaxine is by definition a long-term drug, for at least a few months. In the case of depression, it is recommended to continue pharmacological therapy for a minimum of half a year from the time of remission. Discontinuation of treatment, especially abrupt, may result in withdrawal symptoms of Venlafaxine, which include dizziness and/or headache, sensory disturbances, sleep disturbances, agitation, anxiety, nausea and/or vomiting, tremor. The above withdrawal symptoms are observed in some patients, usually with a mild or moderate degree of severity. They generally occur only for the first few days after discontinuation of treatment. Occasionally, however, symptoms persist for up to two or three months or more. The risk of adverse changes associated with stopping the drug can be minimized by reducing the doses of Venlafaxine gradually over a period of several weeks or months. After abrupt discontinuation of Quetiapine, acute withdrawal symptoms such as nausea, headache, diarrhoea, dizziness, irritability, vomiting and insomnia have been reported. The decision to take Relanium should be made only by the attending physician. Relanium is a psychotropic drug, I add a leaflet : https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/66506/relanium-tabletki/ulotka/17812

Drugs such as Quetaplex or Venlafaxine should not be discontinued overnight. Discontinuation of drugs should be carried out gradually and only under the supervision of a doctor. What medications can be used to alleviate possible withdrawal symptoms is decided by the doctor. Quetaplex: If Quetaplex is abruptly discontinued, symptoms such as insomnia, nausea, headache, diarrhoea, vomiting, dizziness and irritability may occur. It is recommended to discontinue the drug gradually over a period of at least one to two weeks. Venlafaxine: If you abruptly stop taking Quetaplex, you may experience symptoms such as dizziness, sensory disturbances (including paresthesia), sleep disturbances (including insomnia and intense dreams), agitation or anxiety, nausea or vomiting, tremor, headache. Typically, these symptoms are mild to moderate in nature, however, in some patients they may be severe. It is recommended to gradually reduce the dose over a period of at least 1 to 2 weeks. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/41807/kwetaplex-tabletki-powlekane/ https://www.gdziepolek.pl/substancje/wenlafaksyna
