Yes, if mood is good: on current meds, it is reasonable to see if you can taper the clonezepam, but a slow taper is recommended to prevent withdrawal side effects and should be done with your doctor's approval. Clonazepam is a relatively quick acting medication, whereas, the dosulepin takes weeks to be stablilized in your system and works more as a maintenance medication.
