Hi,
My sister was prescribed with Clonazapam. I have no idea what this is and is she taking this. Does anyone know what Clonazapam is? Is it dangerous?

Hello,
Clonazapam is used to control seizures and to relieve anxiety; sometimes is prescribed for other uses.
She shouldn’t use Clonazapam if she has narrow-angle glaucoma, kidney or liver disease, asthma, bronchitis, amphysema or any other respiratory disease. And she shouldn’t use Clonazapam if she is depressed or has suicidal thoughts.
If you are concerned for your sister, I think the best way is to ask her way is she taking this stuff and not to guess what might be wrong with her.

I've been taking clonazepam for the past week and a half. I experienced dizziness/lightheadedness and for lack of a better word, klutziness, for about 3 or 4 days. I've been having extreme anxiety attacks associated with nausea and other digestive problems, and I have to say that it really does help. I also suffer from depression. I'm taking this in tandem with Cymbalta for the depression, which I just began this week. Besides a mild headache, the worst part about the combination of the 2 is the sleepiness. It's 4pm, and I can barely keep my head up at work.
