3 MG Tavor as a daily intake?

I'm now down to 3 mg daily. Google says that a dosage above 2.5 mg per day isn't allowed at home?

The neurologist couldn't rule out epilepsy and recommended I switch to 1.5 mg to 2 mg of clonazepam. He said this would replace Tavor and also serve as an antiepileptic.

Are the doctors all slowly going crazy? They're suggesting medication. The psychiatrist says Tavor or Valium, and the neurologist says Clonazepam.

I'd have trouble getting both, which doesn't make sense. Who should I listen to? I have severe anxiety disorders, and clonazepam only really helps with epilepsy, right?

How old are you? How long have you been taking this?

Benzodiazepines are all also anxious.

3 mg are quite neat. Are you very heavy, or is it the reconciliation effect?

You have to watch. The withdrawal becomes really heavy when you take the longer time. On the other hand, “massive anxiety disorders” would still be moderate.

Tavor should not be taken permanently as long as it can be avoided. Clonazepam is the better choice and also acts as a frightening one.

But I think it is generally questionable to give benzos directly.

Clonazepam, like Lorazepam (Tavor), is a benzodiazepine with comparable dependency potential. With regard to the risks, it is questionable to what extent Clonazepam should be the “better choice”.

Clonazepam also has a high dependence potential but still lower than Lorazepam, and the half-ert time is more than twice as long as the mirror is significantly more stable.

Because the dependency potential for long-acting benzos is less than for short- or medium-long active.

What do you think?

So first two facts:

  1. Lorazepam (Tavor) is dosed between 0.5-2.5 mg daily, distributed over 2-3 individual doses. In individual cases (total) up to 7.5 mg per day are possible.
  2. Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine. All benzodiazepines have anti-epileptic properties, and in Clonazepam they are particularly pronounced. It is therefore often used as an anti-epileptic.

In addition, Clonazepam also acts as a benzodiazepine such as lorazepam (tavor) as anxiolytically (angstrelative).

Don’t your doctors talk? Otherwise, ask one of the two to join the other doctor. The treatment of closely related diseases should always be carried out in cooperation with the treating doctors.

I wish you all the best.

clonazepam is a spasm-releasing and soothing agent from the group of benzodiazepines. The active ingredient is used primarily against seizures in epileptics, but, like other benzodiazepines, also acts in an anxious and sleep-promoting manner.

I’d listen to the neurologist. If there is suspicion of epilepsy, that is the better way.
