you may want totry.5mg, with your doctor's approval (you're not an experiment) taken once in the morning and once at night.
It may be possible you sre getting tolerance to the med, but it"s more likely you're adjusting to the Parnate, and the Parnate anxiety might go away after a few weeks. But you will not get a steady state on klonopin unless you take it twice a day. It has a half life of 18 hours.
