Dosage Question??

Well here i am.....13 months of tapering and almost done. What a long and draining road. But well worth it.
I have 2 days left on my final dose of 1 mg of celexa. I learned early on that alternating dosage amounts daily was not a good idea. I am wondering now however that i am at my lowest dose if perhaps instead of just stopping 1mg if i should take it every second day for a week or 2. Any thoughts?

Re: Dosage Question??

There's no need to do that. I jumped off after I was done with my one mg dose. Why prolong it any more?
