withdrawal symptoms after stopping an antidepressant

June 1999

Many patients don't realize they may get withdrawal symptoms after stopping an antidepressant...especially after long-term use.

These symptoms can begin within several days after stopping the drug. They can also occur if patients miss a few doses.
