'duration of action', not 'half life'.
I've seen various numbers. Unfortunately, I worked up quite a tolerance with 2 mg clonazepam. Which is incredibly difficult to taper.
The drug may 'act longer' if you have little tolerance, or have only taken short acting benzos.
Perhaps the consensus is 6-8 hours, 12 hours tops ?
My experience: the 'peak' effect seems to last much shorter. Two to four hours ? A noticable effect, perhaps up to 6 hours ? With a very subtle after effect ? I have experienced interdose withdrawal, after 6 to 8 hours. Manifested by elevated heart rate, for example.
Your experience/is there some kind of consensus ?
