In reply to HELP! Need TAPER schedule for KLONOPIN asap!, posted by Janelle on May 25, 2003, at 20:47:15
Hi Janelle,
I imagine that after the very emphatic
and litigious efforts of the benzo.org
group, the doctors and/or pharmacists may
now be more aware of the difficulty of
getting off Klonopin. At least I hope so.
I am always talking about myself and it
is probably tiresome, so i will not tell you
just how surprisingly difficult it was for me.I tried cutting 1.0 over a year and a half or
two by cutting the pills in tiny bits - it did
not work for some reason (maybe other than
the drug). *But* I will tell you that the
benzo group following Ashton and Ray Nimmo's
advice, insisted that it cannot be done with
ease, unless a substitute benzo is provided
to smooth out the dense nature of Klonopin --
Valium being the most advised. If you
subscribe there you may find schedules as
the site is devoted to benzo withdrawal and
coping with benzo addiction.I would be very curious to hear more
suggestions here, from people who know
meds.Squiggles
