Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
You are already taking klonopin (clonazepam) and that is good anti anxiety drug. You can take total of 2 mg in divided doses in a day for anxiety. You have mentioned 3 and 4 in your query but it is number or mg that is not clarified.
Clonazepam is benzodiazepine and prescription drug. You can adjust your dose for a while as I mentioned and on Monday inform your doctor and then follow your doctor’s suggestion.
In OTC only propranolol (inderal) is available in some countries without prescription which can be used for anxiety. You can take 40 mg in a day in divided doses for relief in anxiety.
Also drink lemon juice or fruit juice you like for a while, it may help.
Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.
