Ketrel should not be discontinued overnight overnight. According to the Summary of Product Characteristics, Ketrel may have withdrawal effects including insomnia, nausea, dizziness and headache, diarrhoea, as well as increased irritability. Therefore, the end of therapy should not occur suddenly. It is recommended to gradually reduce the dose until complete elimination of the preparation. If you decide to end the therapy, you should talk about it with your doctor, who will recommend gradual discontinuation of the drug to avoid the so-called rebound effect in the form of insomnia, headaches or irritability. However, I am not convinced that the doctor will be willing to discontinue the drug after only a month of its use. I am attaching a study that may be of interest to you: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-bac-sie-dzialan-niepozadanych-lekow
