Could Indigestion And Lump In Throat Be Due To Lowering Dose Of Busbar From 20mg To 5mg?

I am tapering my dose of busbar from 20 mg to 5. I ve noticed a sort of indigestion or lump in my throat. I ve never had indigestion problems before. Could this be a withdrawal symptom and if so how long will this go on. It feels like taking a pill which hasn t gone down. Thank you.

hi
welcome to our site

read your query
that is a very significant question
and i appreciate your problem

i will try my best to answer your query

i think you should taper your dose more slowly
it does seem to be the withdrawal of the medicine causing this
so the best i can tell you to do is slow down the tapering

since your doctor knows more about you then i do
meet him/her to know how to reduce the dose further

i hope this helps you
best of luck

(please do understand that some problem remains as
online texting cuts down history and examination
thereby reducing the effect and efficiency
and increases reliance on tests)
