Weaning off Klonopin
| Sat, 12-30-2006 - 8:49pm |
I've been taking .5 mg of Klonopin for a month now. My sleep has been great. Almost too great. LOL My psychiatrist told me I could wean off whenever I want. He just suggested cutting the pills in half.
I've been sleeping so well but feeling kind of groggy in the mornings. So I thought I would start cutting back on the Klonopin and see how that goes.
Any advice?

Thanks for the advice! I cut one in half last night - fell asleep okay but had a restless sleep - due more to the fact that it rained all night and I have skylights in my bedroom. LOL
I'm relieved to hear it's easier to get off than Xanax. I went right from Xanax to Klonopin so didn't experience any withdrawals but I was very paranoid about getting addicted to Xanax. My doctor said I am on a pretty low dose of Klonopin so it shouldn't be a big deal.
