Klonopin Dosing Peaks and Valleys


Recommended Posts

Hi all, just recently started klonopin .5mg BID/TID and am pretty happy with its effectiveness on my anxiety and agitation.  I've noticed though, that it doesn't seem to last more than 8 hours as evidenced by my anxiety interrupting my sleep when it wore off, and now 9 hours after my last dose when I woke up.  Has anyone experienced these peaks and valleys before? Can I expect it to even out as the medication builds up in my body?  Any shared experiences would be appreciated.

How recently exactly? I had to take klonipin tid for full effect, but I would take a little extra at night to last to the am. I used to do 1mg, 1mg, 2mg -... not saying you should take that much just that you Might be able to alter your dosing

Just a couple days so far.  I'm hoping that the effects even out as I continue to take it.
