i am not quitting a medicine, i am having to push back my dr appt due to work obligations. so i will be running out of my medicine a little early and plan on taking 1mg of klonopin rather than 1.5 for about 4 days in the last week of prescription. i noticed the ppl that are planning to discontinue the med. are tapering at .125? (not at .5 mg.) i have taken 1 mg many times, but i dont think for four days in a row (at least not in last year.) just dont want to feel sick and if needed will call dr for refill prior to appt, but would rather not.
any info would be great.
thank you.

I don't think you need to worry. One of my old docs did klonopin adjustments, up and down, in .5mg increments when I was at your dose level. I was fine...no problems going up or down. That said, if your doc doesn't mind phoned in refill requests, I'd do go ahead and do that...but, whatever you want to do should be fine.
