I read somewhere and I think it was the medline research archives that klonopin had aa affinity for the the 5ht1 and 5ht2 recepter sites and downregulated the processing of srotonin at these sites. This would certainly explain why klonopin out of all the benzos seems to have some sexual side effects especially in males. I have a running script for klonopin and xanax both my pdoc wants me settle in on one. On the one hand with the xanax at theraputic doses...I over sleep and have some slight delay in orgasm, with the klnopin I seem to jump right out of bed but have more distinguishable sexual dysfunction which again brings me back to seratonin......Any drug I have ever taken that effects serotonin has dulled my sex life significantly.........could ALL JUST BE CONJECTURE BUT IF THE SHOE FITS....?
