A member asked:
For my fragmented sleep pdoc offered 1mg of clonazepam, or 25mg of chlorpromazine? which one is less dangerous short term (month or two of use) ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Safe or efficacious?: Sleep hygiene is the most essential element to sound, restful sleep. For short-term use, 25mg of Chlorpromazine is a small dose--that's probably less dangerous. Clonazepam 1mg is more likely to help with fragmented sleep, but just 1 month seems a short trial. Either way, good luck!
