User Reviews for Clonazepam (Klonopin)

I feel depressed which I never felt before.

i tend to build up a tolerance, but i dont find myself to be addicted to it. i only use it when i absolutely have to, and thats how i keep from being addicted. its a great medicine for anxiety, and it also helps with my stomach problems. i recommend it. just watch how much you take and how often you take it.

I WAS PRESCRIBED THIS TO HELP RELAX FROM ANXIETY DISORDER. IT SEEMS TO WORK FOR ANXIETY BUT NOT FOR BEING "UP-SET". MY PHYSICIAN WANTS ME TO TAKE 3 PILLS EVERY 8 HOURS NO MATTER WHAT! IS THIS HOW IT SHOULD BE TAKEN? OR WOULD THIS CAUSE ME TO BECOME ADDICTIVE LIKE THE PHARMACIST TOLD ME? MY PHYSICIAN IS VERY YOUNG BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHO TO FOLLOW: THE OLD EXPERIENCED HISPANIC PHARMACIST OR A YOUNG HISPANIC PHYSICIAN? WHO WOULD KNOW MORE ABOUT MEDICATIONS?

I agree that this medication works great for panic attacks / anxiety. BUT, when I was given it, I had no idea that is is sooo addictive. I've now been on it for over 15 years and now HAVE to have it. It should of been named CRACKOPIN!!!!

DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICATION. I REPEAT DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICATION. I TOOK IT FOR FIVE YEARS. ALL IT DID WAS LAND ME INTO A DETOX FACILITY AND TWO DUI'S. IT IS TO ADDICTING AND ONCE YOU GET ADDICTED AND THE DOCTOR LOWERS YOUR DOSE BECAUSE HE NOWS YOU ARE ADDICTED YOU WILL BEGIN TO FIND OTHER WAYS TO DEAL WITH PANIC ATTACKS. FOR ME IT WAS ALCOHOL. WHATS SO BAD ABOUT IT IS THAT I AM A NORMAL HUMAN BEING. I WORK FROM DAYLIGHT TO DARK AND THE ONLY THING KLONOPIN HAS DONE FOR ME IS TAKE MY DRIVERS LICENSE AWAY FOR FIVE YEARS. THE BEST WAY TO DEAL WITH PANIC ATTACKS IS TO DEAL WITH THE THINGS THAT ACTUALLY GIVE YOU A PANIC ATTACK. ALLOT OF PEOPLE WILL WORK THEMSELVES INTO A PANIC ATTACK BECAUSE THEY ARE ACTUALLY THINKING ABOUT A PANIC ATTAK. THE MORE YOU THINK ABOUT THEM THE MORE PANIC ATTACKS YOU WILL ACTUALLY HAVE. IN MY OPINION A PSHYCOLOGIST IS THE BEST MEDICINE FOR PANIC DISORDER.Read More Read Less

This medication is like a lightswitch for me. When I take it my mood improves along with ability to handle stress. I have mixed feeling on this, I like that it makes me happier but I don't like that it takes a medication to make me a happier person.

i have panic attacks they get so bad i can't breathe chest hurting heart racing when i take one it helps

HI HOW ARE YOU TODAY. ONE QUICK QUESTION DOES THIS MEDICATION AFFECT YOUR URINE. I WAS WONDEING SO IF ANYONE OUT THERE KNOWS CAN YOU RESPOND TO ME.THANK YOU FOR YOUR TME AND PATIENTS

Been on Klonopin for years, ran out was not able to get prescription filed for several days, went through a withdrawral period where all the nervesd in my body were busy busy busy. back on med now but wonder how long it will take to gert backin my system.

I took this drug for over a year with the doses continually needing to be increased because the level of effectiveness kept decreasing. When I was taken off of it, my body responded horribly and I was kept in bed for over a week. In my opinion, not worth it. There are much better medications out there.

relaxes me

I take 1mg. of clonazepam about an hour before I go to bed as needed to help me sleep. I suffer from racing thoughts that prevent me from sleeping, and this relaxes me just enough that I can sleep soundly through the night. I don't get groggy or feel drunk while taking this medication. I usually have no after-efffects in the morning when I wake up, though occasionally it may take an hour or so to completely wake up.

This does not work as well as my Xanax, but the DR> won't give me that anymore. He said it is to addictive. As I read I see that Klonopin is addictive too. I use this everyday for anxiety and as needed, wafers for panic attacks that are bad.

My doctor put me on klonopin a few years ago and have been doing great. I calso take Zoloft. I went into the hospital for Rocky Mt fever and did not take any medicine for several days. Big mistake. I'll not do that again. Started back on them and things going great again. I have a rash but could be from Rocky Mt fever?

WELL I WAS HAVING SERIOUS ISSUES DOING BASIC THINGS AROUND THE HOUSE WOULD PANIC WHEN I WOULD GO PLACES AND COULD NOT GET MY MIND TO STOP THINKING FOR A SECOND. AND I NEEDED SOME TYPE OF HELP CAUSE I DO HAVE A 1 YEAR OLD SON. I COULDN'T SLEEP, MY MIND WOULDN'T LET ME HAD ANXIETY ATTACKS AND NOW THAT IS IN THE PAST THANKS TO THIS MEDICATION I AM ABLE TO FUNTION AND SEE A THERAPIST TO RELIEVE ALL THE WEIGHT ON MY SHOULDERS THAT BROUGHT ME TO THIS STATE. AND I AM NOW A FUNTIONING HUMAN BEING.

easy to use

Very addictive prescription drug. Can't get off of it. Don't start medication if you don't have too!
