I don't want to become tolerant or increase my dosage of klonopin since i hear of all the bad things that can happen. However i have been reading grapefruit juice can potentiate benzos significantly, including klonopin. My question is, which KIND or BRAND of grapefruit juice does this, so i can get more out of my medication and anxiety reduction without increasing the dosages, thanks.
 
Perfect that's what i had thought, thanks! I'm assuming it can be bought anywhere, i wonder if drinking a glass of it before taking klonopin will actually make a noticable difference, or just a myth/placebo.
 
I've only read about there being a substantial difference between white and red GFJ on drug forums, not in the any of the medical/scientific literature I've read thus far.

I think the biggest thing is to check the actual juice content of your supposed "juice" (or just eat grapefruit), and make sure to take enough/in a sufficient amount of time for it to work.
 
I've always used White Grapefruit Juice from 100% Concentrate. Ocean Spray brand if you're curious.
 
Potentiating with a cyp450 inhibitor will make your pills go further but won't do anything to stop your tolerance rising.
Elevated blood-plasma levels will mean more receptor downregulation.
 
Didn't read other responses but it has probably been said, just get a whole grapefruit and eat that shit. Back in the day when I would sometimes do Oxy I would do that and it would increase the effects ALOT (may have been placebo, but, whatever)
