Don't know: You haven't said what the Klonopin (clonazepam) is for, or why you want to stop it. . But I think you said you are taking 0.5 mg daily -- that would meant only once a day. IF so, then you would not need to be concerned about withdrawal, since the dose is low. Instead, be concerned about whether your symptoms will return, and whether you have had adequate treatment.
