whats the average dose of klonopin needed to relieve anxiety in adults?

most drs seem to like .5mg twice a day.

i remember when i took it in the past(im gonna go back on) and 1mg x2 a day seemed much better. id like to see an average of how many people think 1mg a day is fine or 2mg a day is needed. i saw another posted said something about a study that claimed 1mg is the optimal dose for anxiety. i dont understand if its 1mg as one dose, meaning if you needed another dose later you would take another 1mg or if it justs means 1mg per day. and if the latter is the case would it be 1mg once a day or .5 x2 a day.

gee, can ya tell i have anxiety? who the fuck else would think so spastically over a medication i already have prescribed to me.

wait, maybe thats my answer right there. if im thinking so much about it then 1mg is not enough. i need 1mg twice a day.

i could just try 1mg once tomorrow and see though.


OOOH, does the grapefruit juice thingie work for kpins too like it does with xanax?

thank you?


oh, can you put it up your butt too? would that be stronger than sublingual ???? im a moron.
 
Welcome to Bluelight!!

Basic Drug Questions (like dosing, or different methods of taking medications) belong in the Basic Drug Discussion forum. I'll go ahead and move this over there for you.

.5 - 3mg 3xper day is the average clinical dosage,
and tagamet works better with klonopin, but i still drink grapefruit juice
with my kpins just for the fun!
 
I am prescribed .5 twice daily as needed, but I find I need at least twice that for any noticable difference. I also am a heavy drinker, so perhaps some cross tolerance is involved? Not sure how that works.
 
According to the megathread thread, clonazepam seems to have a 90% oral bioavailability. So yeah you can't do much better than eating it.

While I never was prescribed it by a doctor and it seems that I could be somewhat sensitive to benzos, I would use .25mg twice a day(maximum and it wasn't daily). Keep in mind though that I was using this more for depersonalization disorder rather than anxiety also.

How much you should take is based off different variables. Each individual is different, disorders could be more serious or mild, and of course everyone's favorite buddy, tolerance. So there are many factors to consider for a proper dosage and I don't believe that simply using the "average" is right. And to be honest, it seems that you are just trying to reason yourself into doing 1mg twice a day. The decision is yours of course but I'm just saying.
