In reply to klonopin question, posted by woolav on November 19, 2004, at 21:09:44

What are you on the Klonopin for, and were you on Xanax for the same thing? Panic, GAD, social anxiety, or another condition?
I think 3 mg./day is a little on the high side, but I take 1.25 mg./day in divided doses for severe anxiety/panic disorder etc.
But 3 mg./day (when do u take it, by the way?) for severe panic disorder/attacks does not seem that excessive to me...
I have found Xanax (reg. version) and Klonopin both seemingly equal in regards to tolerance "time frames", but as I recall Xanax did sustain/work at the same dose for a slightly longer period of time than Klonopin.
Best,
L.

> Hi I take 3mg daily of klon. and wonder if anyone has noticed an increased tolerance to klon compared to say xanax? Like, i took xanax for years and it wasnt until like a few months ago that i asked for an up on my dose, then my pdoc switched me to klonopin. But i feel like i could take more than 3mg a day. But i am worried she will think that i am getting addicted already.? what is the average dose???
> Thanks
