> I read a case study once where they used Klonopin as a mood stabilizer after Haldol (yes, for some reason, they used HALDOL...in Bipolar I) had caused TD (you'd think they would've seen that one coming...).

> I think they used 4-5mgs/day. I can't seem to find the case study right now, though.That's a high dose, probably necessary if using on patients that needed haldol. I always worry about memory issues and tolerance building with klonopin. My buddy is up to 6 mgs after about 5 or 6 years of being on it. He started at .5 twice a day.
