Thanks for your reply. Just out of curiosity, why do you think 4x a day is too much if the dose is the same as 2x per day .5? My doc said it wasn’t an issue although I’m not sure he’s an expert on taking benzos. Curious to hear your thoughts.
Given that the elimination half life is roughly 30-40 hrs dependent on your metabolism it's really unnecessary to be dosing 4x a day unlike Xanax which has shorter half life
Yes it would be equivalent to .5 2x a day.
I know you mentioned. .5mg was to sedating so perhaps. 5mg 2x a day may be too much
CFS doctor Paul Cheney had a protocol where he used .25mg in the morning another .25 in the afternoon and 1mg at night.Mentioning that this helps the seizure threshold as with ME brain is closer towards seizure than comatose
If you chisr to take it,lowest dose with most benefit may be a way to go
If I took .25mg more frequently like 4x a day it seems that the body may be more likely to get use to the drug,not that dependency doesn't occur after longer term use
