I was prescribed it and it did good for a few weeks to a month until I started feeling panicky and paranoid. But it’s all different for people. Good luck!!!

Are you referring to Klonopin? Clonazepam? I take that. I have for a while. I’m not sure anymore what is side effects and what are just symptoms. I think it definitely helps! I take it at night because it is a sedative in the sense that it relaxes me and causes drowsiness. I’m more used to it now so I’m not sure as it’s not the only Med I take. I take Effexor in the morning and also trazadone tizanidine and transformation at night with my clonazepam. The only thing I’m sure of is that is used to make me very drowsy. Then sleep wasn’t as good so I got the trazadone. So I’m not sure if I just had to get used to it or it causes sleepiness in everyone. I hope this helps a little.

Sorry. I take a different Med. Clozapine is different. I was wrong.
