In reply to HELP! Need TAPER schedule for KLONOPIN asap!, posted by Janelle on May 25, 2003, at 20:47:15
Hi Janelle,
I don't know about Klonopin in particular, but I've read that when tapering off of psychotropic drugs in general, it is best to reduce the drug by NOT MORE THAN 10 percent per week. When you get down to the last week or so, it helps to stretch that last interval out even farther. Ask your doctor whether Klonopin comes in liquid form. I find it's easier to take minute amounts of a medicine when they are in liquid form. You can buy one of those medicine droppers. I bought a 1.0 milliliter oral syringe when I tapered off a medication. I think it was made by a company called "Ezy Dose."
