DTG

 

I think you can do it at 1 bead per month. Some symptoms will rise, but will fade after a couple or three weeks. You can work with this.

DTG, you can do this ... here are some others here who have ...
 
Brodie did it with the 60 mg generic by dropping 1 bead every 2-3 weeks ... here are the threads where she talks about her experience...

Here's a thread on generic weaning started by friEED ... who is another one of our success stories...

And, dlmj thought that weaning was easier with the generic and fewer beads ..

Ok...I am a totally blonde...I take two 30 mg capsules so a total of 12 pellets.  So What do you think of taking out one for two weeks and taking out an additional pellet every two weeks if I am doing well?  That would be a drop of 10 mg per month?

Not bad. That is a good starting point and if it turns out to be too harsh on you then you can always adjust to 1 bead every 3 weeks. You body will tell you if it is too fast.  Be sure and keep us posted as this is also how we learn and can give better advice to others later.

 

Feel free to come here any time to ask questions or just complain. Good luck!!
