clonazepam: Have been using for over 10 years- as prescribed- and it has given me a life back again! The only Rx medication I take- and it works wonders!

Klonopin (clonazepam): I was given this medication because of fibromyalgia and insomnia. I was unable to get a deep sleep and as a result my fibromyalgia was very bad. I was not informed of the issues of long term use and have been on it for years. I started with a new doctor and the first thing she did was take me off of this medication down from 1mg to 1/2 for 30 days and then cold turkey. This is way too fast for this medicine. I have had heart palpitations, hallucinations, inability to sleep-at all, lightheaded, high blood pressure, racing pulse, really weird thoughts.

Klonopin (clonazepam): After years of not sleeping because my mind never stopped. I tried over the counter sleep aids and they always made me wake up feeling like I still needed sleep even taking half doses. Ambien gave me nightmares. My doctor gave this to me and I now sleep well through the night and I wake up rested. My body aches are going away as well.

Klonopin (clonazepam): I find that this medication works on insomnia when other drugs don't except for a true heavy duty narcotic sleeping pill. It also helps as a very mild tranquilizer for 24 hours so it is spread throughout the day to calm anxiety attacks or the fight or flight affect. It is good even if you have bouts of depression because without sleep your depression worsens. So I give this medicine a 10. I have been using it now for 3 years with no side effect. I am also on an antidepressant as well. But getting more than 3 hours of sleep a night is wonderful especially without flashbacks.

clonazepam: I have taken several of the prescription sleep aids and none have helped as this one has. I have taken it for an extended period and the effects have not faded as they did with other sleep aids and have not left me groggy or given me strange dreams or nightmares.
