I was recently prescribed the drug Clonazepam and so far I have not had much luck with it. Anyone with experience with this drug and or side effects? It's always hard starting a new medication, and I have always feared the side effects that come with it. Please help! Thanks!

Clonazapam tricks some people into thinking it doesnt work as well as it should...this is because of the long half-life of the drug.Xanax is MUCH shorter acting, therefore you feel the effects almost right away, which if taken over a long period of time will or can lead to very serious withdrawal symptoms. Clonazapam tapers itself, unless of course your popping it like candy, which will lead to similiar withdrawal syndrome as Xanax.Believe me, Clonazapam works for whats its intended for and so does Xanax. Best bet is to gradually reduce the daily amounts taken to minimize the health risks...if your unsure about the tapering process consult your doc...dont do this by yourself.
