Not sure if this is a direct subject....but benzodiapine withdrawl....nuerontin is the "goldstandard" at least for me....when i went off xanax from 6mg daily...it was a taper...then they put me on Nuerontin 800mg X 4 daily. There's something else called Gabitril...but its complicated with some doctors...lastly lyrica would be an option since its similar to nuerontin.
Clonazepam depresses a certain serotonin receptor...ill have to pull the source up where I read it...but it deceases some kinda of nuerotranmitter....it can make you vary depressed...you might want to ask about lorazepam...a bit less potent than klono but hey....it defintly could help....it also is a vary good muscle relexant, it makes you loosened up both nerves and muscles...i took it in 2005 and went through lots of dosages. Xanax XR could be an option if your still wanting to stay on benzos...depakote, tegretol, trileptal, lamictal would be good choices to stop agitation from klono...there also is plant called Muscimol which ... i have no idea how to get a hold of it but it works on GABA too...muscle relexant too....
hope this helps!
