In reply to what DOSE of CLONAZEPAM do you use?????????, posted by bipolarspectrum on January 27, 2006, at 16:27:20
I have taken Klonapin for about 5 years now. I take it before bed, usually 0.5 mg. Sometimes I need 1 mg. if I am really uptight and can't sleep. Also, I will take a half of a 0.5 tablet if I am agitated during the day (if I take the whole 0.5 it usually makes me too sleepy during the day.)
On a side note, Lithium also made me quite agitated, as did Lamictal. I have quit the mood stabilizers and take Lexapro and Dexedrine, along with Klonapin for sleep. Kind of a band-aid treatment, but keeps me afloat without knocking me out.
Best to you,
