HiThanks for using healthcare magicIf you have agoraphobia and you are symptoms free, then you can leave the drug.  There are chances of relapse after leaving the drug. You can taper in down by decreasing the dose first to half at night for two weeks and then stop. In case, you feel any relapse of symptoms, you can restart it. Better to consult your doctor for proper treatment. If you need further advise you can ask.Thansk
