"Scientific facts" are very iffy in the business of psychopharmacology. Even if klonopin decreases serotonin in the brain there is still no real verification that lack of serotonin "causes" depression. So I would be very careful about drawing conclusions from any study or research claim about how the brain works.
> . . . I was just stating a scientific-fact about the pharmacology of Clonazepam. Perhaps all of you "loyal" Klonopin advocates (who have co-morbid Anxiety & Depression) would be better served with a different Benzodiazapine (like Xanax, or Valium) which would at least leave your already "frail" serotonergenic system ALONE!!!
