User Reviews for clonazepam oral

I just started taking this medicine yesterday. I have been on Xanax for years and in the past year I was diagnosed with panic disorder, ptsd, depression. I have been on so many medications that nothing has helped period. I have cried and prayed for something to give me relief. I have 2-4 panic attacks a day and atleast 3 times a week. My PCP finally gave me this medication and I can already tell it’s working as to where the Xanax worked for a few hours and here came another attack. The side affects I am learning and I do believe I have a few but man does it feel good not to be panicking every few hours and scared of the unknown. My attack have landed me at the ER several times and also always calling 911 cause of the unknowing of what is happening or afraid you’re dying of a heart attack or stroke when in reality it’s a sever panic attack. These are real and do t be afraid to seek help or get medication to help with them.. Read More Read Less

IF NOT FOR THIS LIL BEAUTY OF A PILL I WOULDNT BE ABLE TO EVEN LEAVE MY HOME.. I CAN DO WAY MORE NOW THEN BEFORE THIS PILL

Being on this pill longer than 6 years has ruined my breathing and sleep. I sleep good taking it but the sleep isn’t natural. It helps relax my muscles but slows down my brain too much and is not recommended for longer than 6 months and definitely not over 6 years like me. It messes up my muscles and it’s hard to relax and I’m restless sometimes. I gain some weight on it and I’m very tired during the day for 2-3 hours after I’m awake.

After over a year on (doctor prescribed) Xanax 1/2 tablet 0.5 mg at night for insomnia I went into Xanax withdrawal. I learned your brain gets use to benzos and eventually you will start withdrawal until you either take a higher dose or wean off. So basically you're stuck in a very bad situation. The symptoms were excruciating. I spent seven nights in the hospital. They switched me to longer lasting Clonazepam and the next six months of my life was miserable, slowly withdrawing. Please don't let this happen to you. Shame on drug makers and physicians for allowing withdrawal to happen to so many unsuspecting people. Read More Read Less

Very good at eliminating anxiety but after a year of use anxiety creeps back in..just worse. Increased anger was the main issue on this drug. Did and said things I’ll always regret. Got off the drug and have been so much better off.

Changed my coping with serious breathing due to anxiety and panic attacks. Rather be addicted than having panic attacks

Amazing drug for anxiety, tried going off once didn’t turn out great, helps me till this day, I could not drive not even cut my hair getting a panic attack. am only on 0.5 a day in the morning. i recommend looking at the long term do you want to have a anxiety free life that helps you go through your day to day or do you want to live life like you have before taking this drug. remember there is a reason why you tried this medication in the first place. Everything is bad for you long term! You just have to choose if you want to live in fear everyday or have atleast relieve until your time comes. Read More Read Less

I've been taking drops, supposedly each drop has 0.1 mg of clonazepam, my psychiatrist started me on a too high dose (9 drops taken throughout the day with the highest dose before sleep ) I think for too long, since I've read mostly online that you are only supposed to take for weeks, and I've been on it for almost 4 months, currently taking 7 drops each day, next month will be 5 drops and so on till i hopefully will be off it in another 3 months. I haven't felt that many "depressive" side effects since I am also taking escitalopram, which I will be taking for at lest another 6 months. A friend of mine told me she took it for only 8 weeks and then switched to another type of medicine which is not benzo, I wish I had known this before, now all I can do is wait patiently and taper slowly.Read More Read Less

I’ve used this medication for anxiety disorders for over 20 years and it has saved my life and has never given me any problems. The negative comment person should have told her dr immediately and switched medications. It is a god send for 99% of us with anxiety or panic disorders. I would suggest it to everyone. I’ve been on it OVER 20 YEARS with no problems EVER

I have been suffering from panic disorder for more than 6 years at first I had no idea what has happened to me later I consult with Dr. Than he prescribed me this med. And result was instant and so beneficial but it do have sideeffect on me if I just missed the doses I just felt it and it appear in work, regular work and daily life.

This medication helps me get through the hard days and I can leave it alone when I am feeling OK. Addiction comes with abuse. You can use this drug how it's intended and be fine. It's not intended for continuous long term use. I used it with the passing of my father and then 20yrs later while going through a nasty break up. I still have some left for when I need them. I have 3 refills and my next telehealth appt is in 5 months. I'm not sweating it. It's all about Balance perception and accountability.Read More Read Less

I started this medication for anxiety. Not only did it work on my anxiety like nothing else had for 30 years of different treatments, it also brought to light that I was so anxious that I had lost my libido. I thought it was due to other factors but, once my anxiety was under control, my libido came back. I wish that doctors would understand that for some people, not all, the benefits outweigh the risks. I am able to take this as needed and not every day and it had changed my life 180 degrees. I believe that because I don't take it every day, I'm not seeing the withdrawal or addiction issues. Nobody will prescribe it, even on an as needed basis. I finally found something that works after medication roulette for 30+ years and everyone is too scared of the opioid crisis to deal with people on a case by case basis. I really hate Healthcare and the way it is run. They will pump me full of drugs with terrible side effects that I have to take everyday and say that they take months to work instead of this drug, which works within a hour and I don't need everyday.Read More Read Less

Works very well at anxiety relief.

The only medication that stopped my panic attacks and constant state of terror. Therapy, xanax, antidepressants... Nothing worked.

I have been taking this medication for years and it has helped me so much with my anxiety disorder, extreme depression and self esteem. It kept me stable and out of the hospital.

It has been my saving grace. No side effects, not withdrawals. It is going to work if your responsible easy as that

I get cold sweats, heart palpolatios and nightmares, my brains goes into over time trying solve problems when I sleep. Clonazepam 1mg .75mg night + .25mg afternoon has reduced this episodes and let me sleep more peacefully some nights are still terrible. I am pretty much hooked now. I would hope I can get off it after 10 yrs.

PTSD...severe. Taking this drug saved my life. I know it is habit forming, but better than the consequence of not taking it.

Getting off this medication is pure hell. When getting on expect that you’re going to be on for a lifetime. Which is not really likely because it stops working. I gave five stars for effectiveness… Because it didn’t really work at some point. But one store for satisfaction because of the withdrawal. I’ve been off for about two months now and I’m starting to feel some relief

It's what I've noticed when taking thrmi was staying or is trouble so idk
