    You are never supposed to stop cold turkey! I can't believe your doctor told you to do that. Just take half dose for two weeks, 1/4 The dose 2 weeks then discontinue.

    Yes, you definitely can. I took that stuff, and I had seizures coming off of it. Don't ever go off it cold turkey. If you're taking this drug illegally, then you are in a world of pain.
