Hello,
Abrupt stopping might end up in unwanted complications. You have to gradually wean off the drug.
At first you have to decrease the dose, then take on alternate days, then stop the drug. Watch for withdrawal symptoms and if any u complications develop consult a physician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
