Wonderful.Cheese Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Well, I think you should tell your pdoc that you blacked out on ambien and took extra klonopin during this time. That is the best solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt07 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Didn't you say that you weaned yourself off Klonopin a few weeks ago? And then the doctor put you back on it? If so, you should be fine on 0.25 mg and 0.125 mg until Thursday which is only 5 more days away. Klonopin is not a drug that you have to maintain a certain blood level so you should be ok.

FlamelessCandle Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I also take Klonopin, although at a higher dose that you take. I've been on it for a long time. I take it for severe anxiety alhough it is also used for seizures, If I have to go 4-5 days without it, since it does have a long half life, I am able to get through it with mild discomfort. However, you can easily read websites where you would think everyone who runs out of their pills a bit early has suddenly entered into a living hell. If (in a few days from now) you do not have ANYTHING left to take ...... AND if you have symptoms (sweating profusely, heart palpitations, rapid heartbeat, muscle twitching, restless legs (those are just a few) then get to an urgent care and have them at least take your blood pressure and pulse ==================== IMPORTANT ==================== I'm really not trying to give you a hard time or be judgmental, but you have posted a lot about Klonopin lately - being off of it, being back on it, being on some different dosages (if I recall correctly) and as someone who HAS had trouble with clonazepam in the past (taking more than I should have) I am worried that somethng else is going on. Be very honest with your doctor. He/she will know that in rare cases, people experiences real reouble with withdrawlm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicwhite Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 It's okay. No really I blacked out on Ambien. And I poured out my pills to see how many I had and there where alot of halves and the pills when they where in the bottle seemed low so I started counting and was like WTH? Now I have abused klonopin xanax ativan before but this time I don't rememeber doing that. Since I had successfully weaned off of last months klonopin because I was taking more then I should I was specially careful this month and still wound up in the hole. My family said you should of seem yourself that night. They told me all these stories of how I was acting and the things I did like take a joy ride at eleven thirty at night and falling hitting my head and just laughing. They said they could of swore I was drunk but, I rememeber none of it. so IDK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooster Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 What you are describing falls far outside the realm of what I would call "okay", sonic. If you're doing risky behaviors under the influence of a prescription medication, your doctor needs to know, ASAP... especially if you are driving... you are putting not only your own life and freedom at risk, but you could hurt of kill someone else... and the law won't care if the prescription is legal and you are taking it as prescribed.
