Is it safe to start taking Ativan or Xanax after having been on Klonopin for a period of time??
Do you mean in addition to Klonopin or do you mean replacing it? So long as it's a pretty even exchange dosage wise, you should be fine. Have you consulted a doctor about it?
You should be fine if you have been taking Klonopin for some amount of time. If you are switching from Klonopin to Xanax/Ativan you need to switch at the equivalent dosage. Say if you have been taking Klonopin 1 mg a day. Then you will want to switch to Ativan 2 mg a day or Xanax 0.5-1.5 mg per day. Klonopin and benzodiazepine equivalencies are not an exact science. However, find the right dose and you should be fine.
