"I have been suffering from BMS for almost a year. I've tried all the medications the doctor suggested, nothing helped. Now, finally, I get clonazepam. However, I swallow it because sucking it is kind of painful. I don't know the right dose yet. I'm afraid of becoming addicted and that at some point it will help me more. Yesterday morning, I was in pain despite taking it, which threw me back. How is your experience? Is an occasional flare-up normal? I've only been taking it for one week."

"Similar symptoms to BMS but also feeling teeth have moved. Clonazepam given by oral medicine to suck and spit x 3 a day. Working a little but still some taste and gum sensitivity. Not sure when to take the tablets to give relief. Three times daily suck and spit 2x 0.5 mg 3 times daily. Please advise if you have found helpful and when to take them."

"Clonazepam truly saved my life. The pain was so intense 24/7 I became suicidal. I have been taking the same low dose for almost ten years with no pain."

"I have had burning mouth syndrome for almost a year. I have tried everything-thrush medicine, Neurontin, mouthwash, and clonazepam. I'm afraid I have had no relief, even with the clonazepam."

"It has been the only thing to help my BMS. One .5 pill first thing in the morning keeps it gone all day with no side effects that I can tell. Highly recommend."

"Used clonazepam 0.5 mg, sucked for 3 minutes three times a day, then spit, which improved symptoms. Have now finished a two-week course and don't know if GP will extend it and how long to take it."

"Had to stop, as it is not FDA-approved for neuropathy, and practitioners will not prescribe in the current anti-controlled substance climate."
