I have talked to my doctor about my desire to quit back in March, she prescribed me the same thing and i took it for two weeks (sober all of April) but it gave me nasty headaches and made me feel crappy. Of course a bit of that was detox I'm sure but after two days of not taking it headaches and sickness went away.
