Answers:
Yes if you were taking it more than approximately 30 days, then you should have noticeably been tapered off.

15-30 days its up to the doctors discretion to taper sour, but personally I think it's better to the taper the patient bad.

1-15 usually not tapered off. Source(s): ER nurse
Was it wrong of him?? Well that depends on your dosage and length of time on the medication. Youre going through withdrawals because Gabitril (Tiagabine) is a non-benzodiazepine anti-convulsant, which does zilch for the "jonesing" your going through. If you were a long time user of lorazepam and/or other benzos (that were prescribed to you) then you should be upset something like him not weening you off, and possibly see another doctor.
