Maximum Klonopin Dosage?


Recommended Posts

Sorry for asking so many questions...I have one more about Klonopin.  What is generally concerned to be the maximum daily dosage? Also, how far apart should you be taking them?

My doc wanted me taking one with dinner and before bed...but I just got the prescription filled now and I don't know if I can take one now and before bed.  It's 9:15 and I likely won't be going to bed until 2:00am...would that be ok?

The Crazy Meds page says:

For epilepsy the initial dosage is 1.5mg divided over three 0.5mg doses increased, if required, by 0.5 to 1mg every three days. For everything else, start at 0.5mg a day and go from there. The maximum dosage of Klonopin is 20 mg. Klonopin has a half-life of 30-40 hours.

This:

might have the dosage interval information.

Hope that helps.
