Does Skipping Klonopin Dosage Cause Any Side Effects?

Hello, my name is AJ and I m prescribed Rexulti 1mg, Klonopin 1.5mg/day, and Meloxicam 15mg. I m a 23-year old male, 170 lbs and 5 10 . Sometimes my klonopin makes me forgetful, and I can t remember if I ve taken certain medication already or not. That happened on Wednesday, and today. Obviously I need to find a way to record when I take my doses. My question is this: is it okay to accidentally double-dose on the rexulti, or is it safer to accidentally skip a dose for one day entirely? I m not sure if I ve already taken my rexulti today, and I m deciding whether to take one or not. Thanks, AJ

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If you are not sure about if you have taken the scheduled dosage, it is better to skip the dose than double dosing. You can take the dosage at scheduled time next day.
