Guest guest Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Hi , Check the dependency factor on this drug. My sister has a drug problem and is always asking doctors for Klonopin. Anything my sister asks for is usually habit forming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Hi, I have take Klonopin for leg cramps and tremors for years. I only take when needed and it does the trick. It is habit forming but for me I usually take it once or twice a week so I have had no problem with that. Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Hi , My doctor rx Klonopin .5 at night for a different reason besides leg cramps. I was originally on 1 mg at night and over time about 1 week, I felt like I was intoxicated. Balance was completely off. I mean if you were to look at me and watch me walk, talk, and do daily functions, you would think I had way to much to drink. Only bad part, it that I hadn't had a single drop. After talking with my doc he's dropped me down to .5 mg at night for anxiety, and we still have to watch that. Klonopin is a long lasting drug that stays in your system 20-22 hours. If your not metabilizing it out within 24 hours it will build up. That's what happened to me. Took 3 days for it to get completely out of my system. And it was amaizing, my mind was clearer, I didn't walk like I was severly intoxicated. It will help with leg cramps, but it's got some major side effects. Be sure to talk with you doctor regularly if your feeling anything strange. And also, tell a close friend that your taking it. He/She will be able to tell if there's any differences in you. Sometimes even before you realize it. Let me know how it goes Jean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
