Description
The Maudsley Deprescribing Guidelines provides comprehensive guidance on safely reducing or stopping antidepressants, benzodiazepines, gabapentinoids and z-drugs for patients. This evidence-based handbook fills a significant gap in formal guidance on psychiatric medication, offering step-by-step guidance for clinicians and support for patients. Drawing on fundamental scientific principles and the latest research, the guidelines aim to inform patients of their right to discontinue treatment and provide support to do so.
