Tapering off of .125 of clonazepam

[[Ke...]]

Hi,

I've been on benzos for four years.  I am now on a low dose of .125 of clonazepam and am looking for advice to get off of it permanently.  Any help would be beneficial.

 

Thanks.

The Ashton Manual is an authoritative resource on what to expect during withdrawal and recovery. It provides information that can be very reassuring during any stage of this process, including a list of common symptoms with helpful explanations.

 

For those who are currently tapering, a starting guideline is that the dosage not be reduced faster than by 5-10% every 10-14 days, although some taper even more slowly than that. One exception: very short-term users of a few weeks or less may be able to taper somewhat faster.

You are so close!  I use a scale to slowly taper. Are you cutting a .25 pill?
