Klopin torelnce or was it the Mylan brand

IN a quick nut shell. I have been taking klonpin for 2 and half years and it has worked great. I had the worst panninc attacks could not handle them. I started with Xanex then went to clomazpan genric 3mg per day. 1 in the moring, 1mg around 2:00pm and 1mg before bed. This worked out great around  Jauraruy 23rd went to wallgrenns got my perscription and started my regiment and did not notice much, thought it might be a diffrent brand or something. Well took the pills and a week later noticed minor heart palptations did not pay much attion. Then about two weeks latter I started suffring basically full blown attacks almost, my syomtoms started returing ( this is two weeks afther frist dos of the Mylan genric from walgreens). so at that point started reading online and it turned out that I Had recieved a genric that every one was complaing about I think it is called Mylan something like that. Never the less gave that stuff back to my doc back on this tuesday and got a script for the name brand. Went and recieved the perscription and started my frist dos Tuesday afthernoon now  it is Monday about 5 days latter. I started taking Name brand Roch Klonpin at about ..1mg 3 times per day becase I heard it was 30% stronger then genrics. Did not want to over do it, my dos. So today is monday and I  feel a little better. But im wondering why IM not my normal self again.. In the Am i feel the worst, when it is later i fell better but deffiently not my self. Do you have any thoughts on this. I also read it takes klonipin too reach full plasma levels two weeks in your blood stream. figuring that might be the case.  Any thoughts would be great alos was expercing a ton of increased anxetiy in my life as well but its a week after the swich to name brand Thanks everyone and God bless

In the archives is a long post by Ryan about generic klonopin and how it can be different.  You might want to find that post.

You should be feeling better. Call your doctor, you may need an increase in dosage, or a different medication.  I take this same medication and saw immediate results, but like always, we all respond differently to these medications. Calling your doctor will get you the answer and put your mind at ease.

You should call your doctor about this and work closely with him.  Everyone is different with these types of medications, and what one experiences may not be what you experience.  Your doctor should have told you how long it would take for you to see results.  I'm confused as to whether you are taking the prescribed amount, always follow the prescribed dosage and never alter the dosage on your own. Take care.
