Hi Bobby,

Taking an extra 0.5 mg daily will be different/better than taking an extra whole one from time to time, because it will raise your blood level past what a single 1mg dose would. It will take at least a week to hit steady state at the new dose. Depending how your body processes the Klonopin, it might even go up past that.

See if you can hold off on buying the Scotch at least a week, and see how you feel., because alcohol also causes cross-tolerance with benzos... regular drinking will slowly make the Klonopin less effective.

Also, if you don't feel better in a couple weeks, I'd put a call in to your doctor.

How great that you got to have bagels! Interesting advice from the dentist too. I guess it is to help you get accustomed to pressing down. It makes sense somehow.

Take care.

love
