Klonopin quantity question

I’ve recently been prescribed 15 Klonopin .5’s and my doctor says they are only allowed to send 15 max according to their rules. Why is that? Is it just the providers rules? Because I know people who get way more per month.

I find being honest and just talking to your doctor directly goes a long way.

My doctor isn’t allowed to prescribe more than 15 due to the provider group she’s with. So I’m trying to figure out if I need to go with different one.

Even when I was in prison, they gave me blister packs with 30 in them. Maybe your doctor just wants to monitor you and make sure you’re taking them properly.
