Raise Klonopin dosage?

Posted by andyboy on January 21, 2003, at 17:18:08

Hi All,
Its been awhile since Ive posted, but thought Id share a concern...
Been on Klonopin for just shy of 2 years now and it has worked great. I mean, i finally gained my life back, after 4 previous years of constant worry, panic, and anxiety. I have been thinking as of late however, if my dose was too low to begin with, as although i felt tremendous relief- there was still that lingering "pit in my stomach." Mind you, my panic/anxiety was pretty bad before I went on Klono. I take 2mg/day - 1 at 10am and the other after dinner (7pm). I have been debating (along with my pdoc) about bumping up to 3 as i still have some social phobia/anxious times. One part of me goes for it as i know how well 2mg has worked, but aanother part of me is reluctant- not because of dependance or addiction, but because does 2 lead to 3, then 3 to 4 etc.? Was my dose too low to bgin with? Not sure. I tolerated the initial side effects very well.....
Any feedback would be great!!!
Thanks
Andy
