[|Human|] I have now been awake for more than 60 hours. Mostly it s been because of an erratic heartbeat for which I am seeing a cardiologist. I just finished a 14 day ZIO heart monitor test but won t have the results for a week or so. Generally for the past year or so I have been taking .5 Klonopin nightly for anxiety but these past few days have been horrible . I m scared to increase the dose or take something else for fear of interactions but I m more afraid of another sleepless night. How can I get past this?
[|AI|]  Hi. I had gone through your query. Klonopin is clonazepam and it is benzodiazepine. It has dual role in both anxiety and insomnia.05 mg to 1 mg dose is advisable in anxiety and 0.5 to 2 mg in sleep problems. Sleep problem has co morbid other psychological illness like stress, depression etc. treatment of it will bring recovery in sleep disturbances also. If you have heart problem then caution require to increase the dose of medicines, so you have to consult psychiatrist for better assistance for your psychological illness. There are other medicines that can be given in sleep problem. So consult and get help. Exercise and mediation can help. Avoid smoking/ alcohol/ soft Chat Doctor. I hope I have answered your query. Thank you.
