TaperClinic New Jersey:
A Comprehensive Virtual Tapering Solution for Psychiatric Medications
TaperClinic is proud to offer virtual care for residents of New Jersey, providing a specialized tapering service that allows you to reduce or discontinue psychiatric medications from the comfort of your home, office, or any secure location. Our virtual care model allows you to maintain your daily routine without interruption while receiving expert tapering support. Whether you’re located in a busy urban area or a rural part of New Jersey, TaperClinic removes the need for travel, offering critical assistance to those too unwell from withdrawal symptoms to attend in-person appointments.

At TaperClinic New Jersey, we focus on the careful and personalized tapering of psychiatric medications, including benzodiazepines (benzos), antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, and off-label medications. Our virtual tapering program ensures you avoid the risks of rapid tapering or abrupt discontinuation—common practices in traditional rehab centers. These methods can lead to serious neurological injuries, particularly for those tapering off benzos or other long-term psychiatric medications. We prioritize your safety by providing a slow, tailored tapering process to ensure long-term success.
Tapering Off Benzodiazepines (Benzos) and Hypnotics in New Jersey
Tapering off benzodiazepines, commonly known as benzos, is one of the most challenging processes due to the withdrawal symptoms often associated with these medications. At TaperClinic New Jersey, we have extensive experience in helping patients taper off benzos safely, including:
- Xanax (Alprazolam)
- Klonopin (Clonazepam)
- Ativan (Lorazepam)
- Valium (Diazepam)
- Temazepam (Restoril)
- Librium (Chlordiazepoxide)
- Etizolam (not FDA-approved but often purchased online)
We understand that each patient’s benzo tapering journey is unique. Whether you are tapering after short-term use or long-term dependency, our team ensures that you reduce your dose gradually to minimize withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, insomnia, and neurological disturbances. Your tapering plan is personalized to your needs, and we make adjustments based on your progress to ensure safety and success.

You’ll receive ongoing support through virtual consultations, group sessions, and access to an online community of patients going through similar journeys.
