Klonopin

Klonopin (clonazepam) is a prescription drug that belongs to the class of benzodiazepines and is used to treat anxiety, panic disorders, and sometimes seizure disorders in patients of different age. This drug can form a habit, especially in people with a history of drug or alcohol addiction, so you need to be very careful when taking this medication. Do not exceed the dose recommended and make sure you always take Klonopin as prescribed. Elderly patients are usually more susceptible to the effects of Klonopin, and therefore can experience some of the side effects for longer. Such patients should be very careful to avoid falling down and injuring themselves. You must not start taking Klonopin if you are allergic to this medication or any other benzodiazepines, or if you have severe liver disease. Taking Klonopin is associated with a number of side effects that are most likely if you do not observe the dosage prescribed and take Klonopin more often than needed. Therefore, it’s very important that you take this medication exactly as prescribed without skipping doses or missing them. Your health care provider may want to change your dose at some point to make sure you will get more benefits of the treatment. However, you are not supposed to change the dose yourself.
