In reply to generic version of klonopin CAM W help, posted by Amanda S on March 22, 2000, at 19:05:06
Amanda - What have you heard that was disturbing about the drug (outside of the seizures)? I find that Klonopin to be a safer benzodiazepine than Xanax. It has less chance of withdrawl effects and can be taken fewer times a day. Klonopin has some anticonvulsant activity and when used for convulsive disorders, the seizures can return upon withdrawing the drug. Klonopin is not involved in as many drug interactions as Xanax. Klonopin is used quite extensively for mental disorders to take the edge off of anxiety. 0.25mg is a nice, low dose. Hope this helps - Cam W.
