Hi

Zapiz contains clonazepam, a benzodiazepine.

The usual therapeutic dose is 0.25 to 6mg / day.

Maximum therapeutic dose range is 20 mg/day

The fatal dose depends on too many patient related factors like whether patient uses any other CNS Sedatives, any other drug that have interaction with clonazepam etc.

Today’s research indicates that a move toward individualizing the dosing of prescription agents is warranted and it can happen only after physical consultation / Your doctor will know about these drugs.

Please get the right dosage prescribed by your good luck.
