Dear
Welcome to HCM

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Epitril .5 mg is such a small dose that it may not cause any side effects at all on discontinuing. Secondly, At such a small dose, addiction may also be not prominent. In your case, you must be having apprehension about your medicine discontinuation and you become anxious because of that. Please consult your psychiatrist about this and he shall help you.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
