At any given time, one in four Americans takes a prescribed psychotropic drug for mental health reasons. Many others take psychotropics — such as antidepressants, benzodiazepines, and opioids — for pain control, menopause discomfort, and other medical conditions. 

Yet clinicians receive virtually no training on how to safely stop these drugs in a way that minimizes the risk of relapse or withdrawal symptoms.

The Psychotropic Deprescribing Council  was founded to equip prescribers with essential knowledge about psychotropic deprescribing. 

We rely upon your support. Whether you give $50 or $500 or more, your donation funds the education that fills this gap. 

Give today – help ensure clinicians have the knowledge to guide patients in safe drug discontinuation and progress towards better lives.

Developing and publishing certified medical education requires financial resources. Individuals, businesses, and organizations can sponsor our work by making substantial donations.
