I take 2mg/day; more, if needed. I usually take it in the morning (with all my other stuff), and it seems to be rather long lasting, as I tend not to need another as the day progresses. The only occasion I need to take more (never 2 at a time; only another dose if I am seriously triggered). I would not hesitate to take 2 at a time, though, if there were an occassion that needed it.

Clonaz does not make me sleepy, though (rats!), as it seems to with alot of people I know.

This is a high dose compared to most, but it does double duty - it calms my nerves and prevents stomach spasms.

It takes time to enter your system, like most other drugs, and I think there is a build-up effect over time, but not totally sure (may want to check this out).

I find it to be very effective in controlling my anxiety.

The strangest thing is, I am only 120lbs, but have 2 friends (guys - both 200lbs+) who take .5mg and 1mg and it knocks them out!
