Klonopin will help you the first few days of your detox. It will calm you,help with your legs, and help with sleep. You can try .5mg 2X a day for day 1, Then .5mg Day 2 and 3.
It would not be wise to take more mg's or take it for a longer period of time.

I have been taking clonidine for withdrawals & anxiety & it does help, not my drug of choice, which may be a benifet, I only use it in the evenings when Im at my worst, 1pill only & I believe its 0.5, it takes the edge off & offers me to sleep, but I dont plan on taking it to much longer, maybe a few more days?

I was given klonopin for years fopr anxiety 0.5 in the am and 0.5 in the pm when I went to a dr for pill addiction he took me off that and put me on the suboxone and gave me trazadone to help with sleep. I know alot of people take clonodine, just not sure about klonopin
