No doubt getting off the the speed will make it easier to fall asleep. I know of no risks to tapering off of dexedrine but I am not a physician. It is very important that you consult with a qualified physician about all of this.

I will consult the doctor who prescribed lamactil about tapering off lorazepam. I didn't know it could be life threatening.
