How to Measure Liquid Klonopin

Klonopin, a benzodiazepine, is usually administered as a tablet. If you have trouble swallowing pills, you may ask for liquid Klonopin. This liquid medication should be stored in the refrigerator and will keep for two weeks. If the drug causes an upset stomach, take it with food. Notify your doctor if you experience any side effects. Klonopin in any form can be habit-forming. Talk to your doctor about any concerns you have, but do not suddenly stop taking your medication. You may need to gradually cut down the dosage.
