kpin taper

[turbo35r]

Hi this is the first time me joining a anxiety forum. I am 27 and I take 5mg of Klonopin a day. I have my ups and downs . I'm scared about the dose I am on. I was once on 6mg a day and was able to get down to 5mg I wanna try to taper off a bit to about 2mg a day. I take 2mg in the morning 1mg at noon 1 mg and the evening and 1 at night. Pretty much every 3-4 hours. I think I'm gonna try to take 1.5mg in the morning starting tomorrow putting me at 4.5mg and go from there.. do u think I will notice much of a withdrawal .Any help and support would be great from you guys. Btw been on kpin for almost 2 years

Welcome turbo, I am on Klonopin as well but my dose is very low, it is 0.5 mg once a day, and I do not tap it up....I you want to lower your dose do it very slowly so the body will ajust, and you have not side effects. slow and a litlle bit is a key. When you lower it a bit stay on it for at least two weeks. Then lower another tad
I think 5 mg is a lot, I am also on Klonopin for long time. We have people here who were or are on it for like 18 years, but on small doses.... I take the small one just to take off the edge;))

I believe there's a document on the web called "The Ashton Manual" that was written by a British doctor and it tells you a taper schedule for Klonopin and all other benzos. Good luck to you.
