In reply to Klonopin -- How many times a day to take ?, posted by cybercafe on October 6, 2002, at 15:20:27
I'm a fairly long termer on Clonazepam (Klonopin) as I've been on the drug for the better part of 2 years now. This is the best way for me to take the medication. I'm allowed up to 1.5mg per day. In the mornings, after I've woken up completely, I'll take .25mg. Then, if needed, about 4-5 hours later I'll take another .25mg. If I'm having a bad day and after the first .5mg doses, I'll give myself another .25mg a little bit after supper. Then about an hour before bed, I'll take .25mg, then a half hour before bed, I'll take the other .25. Then, if you're prescribed Trazadone as well, I'll take that right before crawling into bed. This gives me a great sleep and keeps my anxiety somewhat under control all day while allowing me to function completely normal.I find that if I were to take .5mg in the morning, then maybe .5mg in the afternoon, then .5mg before bed, I'd be completely sedated and stoned out of my tree for the majority of the day.
