      Hi everyone.

      Long time reading this helpful forum but first post.

      I was prescribed with Clonazepam (Rivotril) 0'25 mg three times/day, 2 weeks ago due to my anxiety problems and mild tinnitus mainly. It seems it doesn't lower my tinnitus level. So, after reading other posts, could be better to start withdrawal now to avoid future problems (worse tinnitus, habituation, ...)?

      What would be the procedure to taper off?

      Thanks a lot. Regards.

      You were on it for a very short period so please don't worry but if you wanna taper correctly I recommend this video but you will taper longer then you were on it.

      How to come off of clonazepam with no...


      A short taper would be something like 3 days 0,50 mg, 3 days 0.25 mg and then stop but I'm no doctor.

      Thanks for your answers guys.
      I wonder then if maybe it's too soon for the drug making full effect. Or if the dose is high enough to get relief ...
