> Hello, Beeb. Im curious about these issues too. Ive also read that klonopin increases/decreases or just affects serotonin in some way. Ive taken it 4 years at .5mg nightime only.Ive felt the need to raise the dose lately,and I really dont want to. Ive tried to taper off,and its extremely difficult,for me. I havent been able to. And I did taper off of zoloft and remeron after 2 yrs of use. I hope someone can answer your ?s.
0.5 mg is not that much, but this is a potent drug. Do you take it for sleep ?
Have you considered just stopping the drug, and starting something else that works for you/is therapeutically effective ?
If you can't taper, stopping the drug and possibly starting something else seems worth considering.
