User Reviews for Clonazepam (Klonopin)

I was put on Klonopin approx. 1 year ago the first time, and have been on a scheduled dosage for about 6 months. I was on a psychiatric unit for a week with severe anxiety and panic, and they finally found a regimen including 1mg of Klonopin 3x daily that worked for me. I abosolutely love Klonopin. It has worked very well for me, with the only side effect being excessive drowsiness, which went away after about 2 weeks at my present dosage. My Dr hasn't had to increase the dosage to give me the same effect, so all in all, I've finally found my wonder drug! :)Read More Read Less

i was given this drug for sleep disorder from fibro myalgia

I began getting muscle twitches out of the blue several months ago due to major anxiety issues, and within a few days of using klonopin they nearly disappeared! So far it's a wonder drug to me! I wanted to ask any of you that have been on a steay dose daily for a couple months or more if you still feel effects from the same dose or do you constantly have to raise the dosage?? Any input would be greatly appreciated. :)

Helps my general anxiety and dizziness. No side effects. Been using it for about two years. In fact, makes me feel better just knowing I have it in the cabinet.

klonopin is awesome. I've had ativan before which seemed to have a way better and intense effect but i've been on klonopin for a couple years now. Only problem with klonopin is your very forgetful if you take more than recommended

Helped me with interal emotional issues. No family support. It helps me calm down. My blood pressure calms down, then so do I. Things will always be the same, but I need to take care of my self.

i have been on many medications for anxiety and this is the only thing that has helped me!

klonopin is a very dangerous drug. I cannot take klonopin in the morning and then drive. There have been many times I have driven on the wrong side of the road or had to pull over and sleep. For me this drug just put me to sleep. I do not think anyone should take this drug.

excellent

fast acting but does not help me sleep

I am using this medication off-label as a muscle relaxant. It has helped me tremendously with my tension headaches but the effectiveness has decreased over time.

I've been taking Clonazepam (Klonopin) for about 3 months, .5mg, tid. I find it very effective as opposed to Alprazolam (Xanax) because it is longer acting, about 6 hours relief whereas the xanax was only good for extreme anxiety but was only good for about 2 hours. I had an addiction to opoids in the past, but I don't feel I've ever had a problem with benzodiazepines. I've been on them and off them for the past 11 years, without any cravings or withdrawal, but I also didn't take them for months at a time either.Read More Read Less

I have been taking this medication for 4 years for RLS (restless leg syndrom) It works wonderfully the only problem I have is if I dont take it at night I dont sleep. But it works wonderful

I have been taking this medication for 7 years I was on ativan prior. It helps me get through panic attacks. I try very hard not to take it everyday but it is very helpful to me.

This medication helped me with panic and anxiety attacks more than any other anti-depressant. I did not need to take it everyday. Only when the attacks would occur. The attacks were only 2-3 times a week or less.

My Dr perscribes Klonopin during the height of my manic/depression cycles of my bipolar disorder. He said he prefers this med to others for my condition since it plays well with other anti-seizure medication. Since I take other meds, the side-effects are heightened for me. I personally do not care to take this med because of the side effects, but it does significantly ease the severity of my manic/depression cycles.

its the bomb

seems to help with by disorder
