I think asking for a PRN is a good idea. My boyfriend has bipolar 1 and switched recently to a new pdoc (prior one moved away) and he has a PRN rx for seven 1 mg Klonopin that he can refill weekly. He has occasional anxiety.
All pdocs are different. I'm rx'd 1 mg of Klonopin four times per day. But that's just me. It's for anxiety and mania.
I think patients deserve a say in what meds they will and will not take.
