Guest guest Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Thanks so much for your useful comments, and . Can this suspension in cornstarch be kept to future use or do I have to throw away the unused amount? ** You can use it. -- C > > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------\ ----------------------------------- , I didn't like doing the liquid titration myself...klonopin is not soluble in anything available in the home so it's hard to keep it evenly suspended when mixing it. I found a compounding pharmacist who makes a solution that is suspended so it's very easy to use and it only costs $25 dollars to make... I don't know if you have that option where you live but if you do it's very nice. You do need a prescription from a doctor about how the compound should be made. My compound is .1 mg for each 1 ml. It allows for a very slow taper. best to you, Kali http://bipolarblast.wordpress.com/about/ ** 's comment: Unfortunately, there are times when people have to work with what is available even if not perfect. Using a blender with liquid and quickly taking your dose out of it, while not perfect, usually works well enough. You can also make a suspension which works better once you get the hang of it. Use 2.5g of cornstarch per 100mL of water. Mix thoroughly. Crush your tablets as needed depending on your dose and the dose of your pills (you may only need to crush half or a quarter of a pill.) Combine into the liquid solution. Put in a bottle. Shake thoroughly before using. Measure out what is needed. Klonopin ands Xanax can also be dissolved in PEG. Here is an article on the safety of PEG. http://archpedi.ama-assn.org/cgi/reprint/157/7/661.pdf?ck=nck I don't think you need to jump through this kind of hoop until you get down much lower. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
