I was on 1 to 1 1/2 mgs of Klonopin along with Lexapro and Lamictal for bipolar 2 and was doing really well, then I hit a rough patch.
My psych moved me to Seroquel and said to taper the Klonopin if I felt too sedated. I've spent two weeks getting up to 125 mgs of Seroquel but I'm still at a mg of Klonopin every day, usually taken during the day when I feel that insane, anxious intensity, rather than just at night like I used to.
Does anyone else take Seroquel with Klonopin? Isn't one supposed to replace the other? How much Seroquel until it takes over? I can feel the sedation quite clearly, and it is helping some (I sleep through the night and everything), but I still feel most days like I need the Klonopin before bed time.
Any thoughts much appreciated
