For some reason I'm experiencing anxiety that is off the chart. I've taken a lot of Klopin to stop it but still not coming down. What's the limit on Klopin before it becomes dangerous. What's the leathal dose?

Mage can you call someone from your doctor's office? can you get them to patch together a solution for you fast?

I agree a call to the doc is in order before they close today. Sounds like an emergency to me.

Yes, please call your doc's office. How many have you taken?

Oh lord. i fell your pain,, I get that all the time. i take ativan..Im on 1mg a day and three times a day. I used to be on 2mg a day three times a day..Are you taking more than that.

I hate anxiety more than anything .

I agree with the others, it might be time to give your Pdoc a call.

As far as maximum usage of Klonopin, at 1 MG, probably 3 a day...NOT all at once, space them out ...call your Pharmacist to get clarification.

Good luck

I'm feeling better.. I took abot 10 or 12 mg of klopin. I finally feel calm.
However my mind is numb and I suggest I don't drive anywhere or operate any heavy equipment.

wow! that is alot of klonopin, please be careful. i was on alot of ativan and coming off was hell. i found (for me) an AP works and i have really bad anxiety, i agree, call your pdoc asap
