Better to not take Clonazepam. Very addictive. Go to uptodate.com and read more. Discuss with your team.

You are on the path toward medication tolerance, requiring more pills to cause sleep, and clonazepam is NOT a wise choice. Find a second opinion, engage in sleep hygiene program, and try to avoid all "sleeping pills" in the future. It takes time, but insomnia can be controlled with diligence.
