Paperback. When a taper goes wrong, the chart usually records a relapse. A patient reduces their antidepressant, destabilises three weeks later, and returns to the original dose. They improve within four days. That improvement gets documented as confirmation that the medication was still needed. But recovery in four days is not how a depressive relapse behaves. It is how withdrawal behaves when the drug is restored, and the reasoning required to tell the difference is taught in almost no prescribing program. What this book does Hyperbolic tapering is now recommended in national clinical guidance, and knowing that it works does not tell a prescriber what to write on Tuesday afternoon. This book covers the part that comes after the theory: how to generate a proportional schedule from any starting dose, how to distinguish withdrawal from relapse in a fifteen minute follow up, where to obtain doses that no manufacturer produces, how to work with a compounding pharmacy, when to hold rather than reverse, and what a defensible chart note contains. Why this book is different Most tapering references are written for a mixed clinical audience and assume a formulary that does not match United States practice. This one is written for a single profession and a single supply chain. It teaches a method that generates schedules rather than supplying tables to copy, because the patients who most need help are the ones whose dose, drug, and history appear in nobody's table. It also treats the current scientific disagreement about withdrawal seriously rather than picking a side, so that a clinician can answer the patient who arrives with a conflicting headline. Who this is for This book is for readers who prescribe antidepressants and were never taught how to stop them. It will suit psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners in independent, telehealth, or small group practice; nurse practitioner students working through a psychopharmacology sequence; physician associates and family practitioners managing long term antidepressant use in primary care; and clinical preceptors who supervise prescribing. A practical foundation Sixteen chapters take the reader from the receptor pharmacology through patient selection, informed consent, schedule arithmetic, formulation sourcing, monitoring, troubleshooting, special populations, documentation, and the practice structure required to deliver this work on a real caseload. If you want a clear and practical guide to deprescribing antidepressants in United States clinical practice, this book offers a structured place to begin. This item is printed on demand.

When a taper goes wrong, the chart usually records a relapse.
A patient reduces their antidepressant, destabilises three weeks later, and returns to the original dose. They improve within four days. That improvement gets documented as confirmation that the medication was still needed. But recovery in four days is not how a depressive relapse behaves. It is how withdrawal behaves when the drug is restored, and the reasoning required to tell the difference is taught in almost no prescribing program.
What this book does
Hyperbolic tapering is now recommended in national clinical guidance, and knowing that it works does not tell a prescriber what to write on Tuesday afternoon. This book covers the part that comes after the theory: how to generate a proportional schedule from any starting dose, how to distinguish withdrawal from relapse in a fifteen minute follow up, where to obtain doses that no manufacturer produces, how to work with a compounding pharmacy, when to hold rather than reverse, and what a defensible chart note contains.
Why this book is different
Most tapering references are written for a mixed clinical audience and assume a formulary that does not match United States practice. This one is written for a single profession and a single supply chain. It teaches a method that generates schedules rather than supplying tables to copy, because the patients who most need help are the ones whose dose, drug, and history appear in nobody's table. It also treats the current scientific disagreement about withdrawal seriously rather than picking a side, so that a clinician can answer the patient who arrives with a conflicting headline.
Who this is for
This book is for readers who prescribe antidepressants and were never taught how to stop them. It will suit psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners in independent, telehealth, or small group practice; nurse practitioner students working through a psychopharmacology sequence; physician associates and family practitioners managing long term antidepressant use in primary care; and clinical preceptors who supervise prescribing.
A practical foundation
Sixteen chapters take the reader from the receptor pharmacology through patient selection, informed consent, schedule arithmetic, formulation sourcing, monitoring, troubleshooting, special populations, documentation, and the practice structure required to deliver this work on a real caseload. If you want a clear and practical guide to deprescribing antidepressants in United States clinical practice, this book offers a structured place to begin.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
