There is a taper schedule in my journal for klonopin..... Make sure even if you use the schedule I have plz let you doctor know you would like to the klonopin. Go to my name in blue click on it it will take you to my profile look for journals ........ you will find it there

Yes I agree with fre7772008. Slowly. Klonipin has a 35hr half-life. So it is in your system for a few days after a dose. Maybe think about taking it every otherday as a way to start coming off or at least getting down. But do check that web-site above. Good Luck.

you stop using klonopin very slowly by tapering off if you stop suddenly you could have a cardiac event or seisures. check out this site  http://www.benzo.org.uk/manual/    God bless
