@repeterb47 I've been taking 1mg daily of Clonazepam for 14 years. I thought I'd try tapering off it, but after reducing the dosage to .75mg for a week I gave up because I couldn't sleep. It's one medication that my wife wants me to keep taking because, aside from the reason I take it, it has a side advantage of keeping my legs from running or kicking in my sleep. She was almost ready to make me sleep in the guest room.

So, I concur with others who have said that it's important to taper off it very slowly, and if his doctor could prescribe another medication that would make it easier, I'd say to get right on it because 3 months is barely enough time to be completely off it. The doctor might be interested to see the chart that scruffy shared about tapering off Klonopin.

@repeterb47 You're welcome. If your son needs more time don't hesitate to have his lawyer give a schedule to the judge. They usually are very understanding of medical issues. The jails don't need new problems; they already have enough.
