Clonazepam/Klonopin

Hello Janet

It is not my aim to tell you how to take your medicine but I will share my experience with this.

Klonopin has a longer half life than say, xanax or ativan. It is usually prescribed for anxiety in long-standing treatment and should therefore be taken as prescribed by your doctor. Taking clonazepam regularly and as directed will build you up to a thereupetic level where you will receive the most benefits of this benzo.

Don't take that as medical advice... Call your doctor or pharmacists and they will better direct you. That's why they get paid the big bucks!

As always, we are here for you! Dont be afraid to take your medicine as prescribed as it is for your benefit and part of the healing process.

Big hugs

Cornell

I am planning to go on this long time but for now Ativan is what i like .Xanax is not for me .

I have heard good things about it and makes sure its fine anxiety drug .

so Janet look for 2-3 weeks and then decide how you want to deal with this .

But doc decides best for us ,we cannot tell them what they should prescribe .

I am very proactive now so he listens to my inputs ,earlier i never mentioned about medications to doc anyway.

Observe and then decide ,it should take about 3-4 weeks to build into system ...

For me I found that while it worked as soon as I took it, it worked better and more evenly after about a month of having it in my system. The difference is pretty big honestly. I take it twice a day and I feel completely level all day long. Even if I accidentally take a pill an hour or two late it doesn't make any difference. I never feel like it's wearing off. I don't feel anything at all when I take it actually.
