kst7488 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 i need some help with my new med. i was on 2mg of ativan 2 x a day. i took it at 8 am and 2 pm. it had lost a lot of effectiveness. now i am on 1 mg of klonopin 2x a day. i feel like a total zombie, i tried taking the doses at the same time as the ativan but i feel sooo out of it. and im afraid to drive anywhere. do you suggest i lower my doses or change the times i take it or what? this drug is effing strong.

Uncreate Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 If I were you... i'd invest in a pill cutter and try taking a half twice a day for a bit... and if that doesn't do it... then gradually move your way up to the 1mg if it is comfortable. I switched from ativan to klonopin... It took me a good 2 weeks to get used to klonopin over ativan. But it sure did work better Klonopin also lasts longer... which could be that the first dose you take is overlapping with the second... do you feel like a zombie after the second? Maybe you should push it back a few hours. But i'm no doctor. hope I helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
