I have been tapering off Klonopin for 3 months, and i relapsed today and took .5 mg?

since i only took a pill opposed to a quarter of a pill which is what i was taking, can i continue on a quarter tomorrow and keep trying or do i have to start allover again? Serious and knowledgeable responses only.

    You should be fine since .5 mg of Klonopin isn't a massive dose. Simply try taking .25 mg tomorrow and continue where you left off. I seriously doubt that there would be any withdrawal symptoms to accompany the dose, as your body is used to the .25 mg dose. If you were to take .5 mg for a longer period of time, such as a week, then you would have to re-start the taper process. Seeing as this is a one time thing, you should be fine reducing your dose without any problems.
