It could be some withdrawal symptoms
I wouldn’t panic just yet

Hopefully @Wave is right and it’s just getting used to the lower dose. If you can’t handle it though call your dr sooner rather than later

Thats a low dose but Amisulpride is a pretty strong AP close to Clozapine so maybe you will get used to the lower dose.

I am sorry you aren’t feeling well with your med reduction. I would be in touch with your dr if this continues.

Thanks, its sort of fluctuating right now, & i will definitely be in touch with my dr if it continues.

@Aziz it is a low dose, I’m hoping it will level out, i think when i decrease my med it causes a slight imbalance, my brain will be use to having that amount of chemical, now there is less of that chemical it is bound to have an effect.

I should’ve known there’d be a settling in period where symptoms could break through, idk why i’d hoped i’d have little to no withdrawals (bc its a low dose anyway)
