In reply to change I just switch from Klonopin to Ativan?, posted by bassman on April 24, 2006, at 18:18:37
> I tapered from 1 mg Ativan and 1 mg Klonopin to 0.5 mg Klonopin. No trouble with the taper...but now I'm too anxious, maybe because of the Prozac and Wellbutrin I'm taking. I have panic disorder. I was thinking of switching from 0.25 mg Klonopin twice a day to Ativan directly 0.5 mg twice a day, maybe three times a day. I know the half-life of Ativan is shorter than Klonopin. Can I just switch in the period of a day?

I don't think this will be a problem at all, but that's just my opinion...i'd do it myself. I'm surprised with your anxiety problem that your doc has you on both Prozac and Wellbutrin. When i was on Prozac my anxiety went through the roof. and Wellbutrin can cause CNS stimulation. Just seems like a strange combo for someone with anxiety issues, but then what do i know. :) Good Luck.Monte
