In reply to Re: Any good meds to use during KLONOPIN withdrawa, posted by djmmm on January 14, 2006, at 7:38:58
I've gotten off klonopin a few times by dropping .125 to .25 every two weeks. The key for me was an extreamly slow tapper. Each time I'd have the same issues. Felt better day 1 and 2, sleeping problems day 3,4,5. Slight increase of anxiety through about day 10. Felt okay by day 14. Then start the process over.
That being said each time I was off all my social anxiety returned, I tried other meds, but nothing worked as well for social anxiety as klonopin. So for me, the search is for the med to take with it or perhaps replace it to improve my mood. Next month EMSAM an MAOI patch is due to be approved an my doc thinks it may be an answer. We'll see. Good luck.
