What scheme or plan of decrease of a dose if initially the daughter received 2 mg. On kg. Weights a day? In advance thanks for the answer.

Dear Andrey! Strictly ustanovlenyh schemes or plans do not exist. All depends on concrete circumstances. I can tell or say one, that depression of a dosage should be slow. The below a dose, the more slowly depression. It is better to discuss this question about yours the attending physician.

Thanks for the answer. But the matter is that the doctor has tried to cancel at once reception of a medicine, referring that the dose was small and the child small (the last to me is absolutely not clear). After I have rebelled, she has appointed or nominated while decrease twice. Therefore to me vse-taki the standard, average scheme or plan of deducing or removing of a medicine from use interests. I hope for a prompt reply. In advance thanks.

Usually start to cancel on 1/2 tablets in three days. In your case I it would make of 20 mg up to a dose. Further the cancelling of a preparation should occur or happen more slowly (on 1/4 in three days).
