Question 1

on dr. prescribed klonopin (clonazepam) taper.  on last cut of .25mg x 1.  exp. moderate w/d symptoms.  supposed to stop today.  cut in 1/2 for a milder landing?

Accepted Answer

Klonopin (clonazepam) taper: It's not uncommon for the last steps in tapering off Klonopin (clonazepam) to bring some discomfort.  Sometimes this can also be hard to tell apart from a person's baseline anxiety returning. I suggest you tell your physician what you're experiencing, so that s/he can help you move in a healing direction. And yes, as a doctor I have slowed such tapers for "a milder landing.".

Question 4

i've been on klonopin (clonazepam) 1.5 mg daily for two weeks. am i able to stop or are there chances i could have serious problems? what dose is good to stop at?

Accepted Answer

Taper Klonopin (clonazepam): You may or may not have habituation at this dose and 2 weeks' time, but tapering is still the wisest path.  To accomplish this, please work with with the doctor who prescribed your medicine.  Since you've only taken Klonopin (clonazepam) for 2 weeks, it should be generally possible to reduce the dose by .5mg over 5-7 days with each step.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Yes.: It is best if you taper your doses when discontinuing this medication.

Accepted Answer

Stop: You haven't taken it long enough to worry about withdrawal symptoms

Question 7

i have only taken 19 one mg of klonopin (clonazepam) over just a little less than 4 weeks is it safe to just stop?

Accepted Answer

Gradually: Clonazepam needs to be tapered very gradually. Individuals may vary, but as a rule of thumb, most
people can tolerate a reduction of 1/4 mg every 3 days.

Question 8

would it be dangerous for me to just suddenly stop 0.75mg of klonopin (clonazepam) once a day? i dont have anymore so i cant taper.

Accepted Answer

It would not be: dangerous,but you might haveslight withdrawal,such as an upset stomach and rebound anxiety, and sleeplessness. But these would probably be mild and would only bother you for a day or two.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

: Klonopin has NO effect on the accuracy or reliability of an EMG/ NCV study done by an experienced practitioner.  There is no reason to stop if you are scheduled for this study.

Question 10

if i take klonopin (clonazepam) 1mg every night for about 4 months would it be ok to just stop without weaning?

Accepted Answer

Poor choice: You might be okay doing this, but your best choice is to wean  off of this medication.
