Clonazepam Taper @.028mg

[[lu...]]

I began my reduction to .028mg clonazepam 2x three days ago this morning I forgot to take my dose.  This afternoon my anxiety soared and I took a .028mg dose at about 3PM.  My anxiety subsided a little later.  I thought I could skip my PM dose as I took this dose so late.  Wrong.  About 10PM I had a tightening of my jaw muscles to the point I had to take my PM dose. 

After I do a reduction I get hit with symptoms on days 3&4 before they begin to subside.  After I realized I forgot this mornings dose I thought I could try a jump but my anxiety set in together with jaw tightness tonight indicating I will need to take my dose even lower.

I am amazed at how potent clonazepam is.

Yes, Clonazapam is a very potent medication. It is important during a taper that you keep your doses at the same time each day. It is also important not to miss doses. Do you have a notebook where you are writing down the times you take your meds.? I think you are smart to take your dose to .028. It is normal to feel some symptoms during tapering. The goal between cuts is not to be symptom free, but instead to feel somewhat stable with minimal symptoms.

Hi, I am also tapering off Clonazepam. I'm down to .25mg and in a week I will go to .125mg. How did you get your dosage so low? I can't cut the tablet anymore!
