I need help for tapering off of the medication LIBRAX (for anyone who has gone through this, taken the medication, or who knows about it) would be most helpful. My doctor prescribed Librax for me because I had stomach issues for 4 weeks. She thought it was either IBS or a stomach viral infection. It finally went away and now i want off librax. So i took librax ONCE every night (i never took it up to 3 times like the directions said bc it makes you very drowsy). So i started with one every night for about 3 weeks. Then I went down to one every other day ( for 2 days) Then went 2 days straight without it. Well this is the 3rd day without it and i had to take one because the withdrawal symptoms were becoming very uncomfortable such as jittery/kinda shaky, fever, irregular heartbeat and weak and kinda anxious. how can i taper down and get away from this drug without needing it , getting withdrawals, or becoming addicted (if thats possible). not sure if i should consult a GI doctor

Try some peppermint plus (Enzymatic Therapy makes it) for the IBS, and some Valerian root for the jitters and insomnia. Glutamine is supposed to reduce craving. Take a couple tsp at suppertime. Chamomile tea is a nice soother for nerves.
Good luck!
