This course looks specifically at coming off medications. It discusses various drug groups, the associated adverse effects that may occur when stopping them, the reasons why stopping slowly is healthier, some strategies for how to stop, when it might be important to stop suddenly and managing the long term adverse effects of having stopped medications too quickly.

This course will take approximately 30 to 60 minutes to complete, but this timing will depend on how fast you read and how long you spend on the activities and reflective questions. You do not need to complete the whole course in one go. If you leave and come back to the course it will remember where you got up to.
