The drug tapering depends on the context.
* For outpatient, the best way would be to create two lines on the
  prescription document. The first line is the "standard" regime, and
  you specify the "treatment duration". The consecutive lines would be
  the tapering modes. Depending on the treatment, you might have to use
  more than one line. You can reinforce the directions both at the drug
  and prescription notes.


* For inpatient / hospitalized patients, you do it on the "Medication
  Plan" tab, which allows you to adjust the treatment dynamically (time
  of the day, dose, route...

Hope this helps!

All the best
Luis
