Klonopin is also widely known as Clonazepam which is the active ingredient in it.
Klonopin (Clonazepam) is grouped under the drug class called Benzodiazepines.
Klonopin affects chemicals in the brain, so it is prescribed for the treatment of seizure disorders and anxiety.
Since it changes certain chemistry of the brain, it may also cause the brain become unbalanced resulting in many side effects.
The side effects are generally benign in short-term use, but sudden withdrawal after long-term use of it can cause severe symptoms, and sometimes they can be even fatal.
The side effects of this drug are very extensive. For a complete list of the side effects, please click on the related links, Klonopin Side Effects and Klonopin Side Effects Center.
There don\'t appear to be any serious side effects when switching from Xanax to Klonopin. Even so, talk to your doctor about potential side effects you may have.
Yes, they compound the effects of each other. Be careful you don't OD.
cross-tollerance, and passing out
Stupidity...among others...
Yes. Klonopin, or Clonazepam, is a form of Benzodiazepines, the most common classification of anti-anxiety medications. Much like Xanax, Klonopin is available in .5mg, 1mg and 2mg tablets. Street value of Klonopin is significantly higher than Xanax. Klonopins will definitely get you very high however, I do not in any way shape or form recommend it. Klonopins have some very nasty common side effects and some disgusting long term effects with continued use.
Klonopin is used for anxiety problems and seizures mainly. It's a brand name for the drug Clonazepam, similar to Xanax but more people prefer taking Klonopin for it's longer lasting effects. More information on Klonopin can be found here http://klonopinsideeffects.net
You get arrested
Death.
Yes. Xanax (alprazolam) and Klonopin (clonazepam) are both benzodiazepines. They have essentially identical side effects and are used for an essentially identical list of conditions. The duration of action for clonazepam is longer. These drugs should not be used at the same time, but may be used by the same patient at different times of day (for example Xanax during the day as needed and Klonopin at bedtime). As prescription drugs and controlled substances, each should only be used (together or in combination) as prescribed.
Sometimes SSRIs like Lexapro and benzodiazepines like Klonopin need to be adjusted, or you need to just find a different medication that doesn't cause bad side effects. For example, to replace the Lexapro, there are drugs such as Prozac and Zoloft, and to replace the Klonopin (if you think that is causing you more side effects) there are drugs such as Ativan and Xanax. Good luck!
i was on both and i had no adverse side effects. however the seroquel can cause extreme drowsiness
While it is not illegal to take an old prescription of Klonopin, the side effects could produce more damage than good.
Increase in cardiovascular side effects. Mixing alcohol with any stimulant will do this
The impact of intoxication rate by mixing other drugs with alcohol can vary depending on the drugs used. Mixing Adderall, for instance, with alcohol can mask the effect and make a person seem less intoxicated, when they are in fact at the same level of intoxication as they would be without the drug; this can often lead to alcohol poisoning. Mixing Xanax can increase the effect of both the alcohol and the drug causing dangerous side effects.
Side effects of alprazolam include drowsiness, memory loss, and can be habit-forming.
