> I am on 2mgs of klonopin at night and I am supposed to take it every night no matter what. I normally am not a drinker but tonight i went out with some girlfriends and had some mixed drinks like more than a few. So here I am tipsy and typing a message to y'all. I am a little freaked out about taking the klonopin with the alcohol in my system but then I hear other horror stories about people having seizures after missing one dose. Any advice
Hi,
I'm on 0.5mg every night. Sometimes I've not taken it at all. Sometimes I've gotten bored & taken 5mg with no ill effects (just sedation the next day).
I used to drink a lot of vodka & orange juice with all my meds nearly every night. It definitely had an additive effect, but nothing drastic.
So I say if you've missed it before & had no problems, then just take 1/2 the normal dose. You can always take the other 1/2 when you wake up :)
I don't believe that "quite a few drinks" plus 1-2mg of clonazepam will kill you. I'd be very surprised. You'd be dead of course so it's your decision ;)
