30 weeks pregnant will taking klonopin (clonazepam) effect my unborn baby?

Don't take: Klonipin is a class d drug for pregnancy. This means that it has definite recognized risks for your baby. If you don't absolutely need it, stop it. Try to find an alternative, safer drug. There probably is one.

Always a risk: I try to get my pregnant patients to stop taking any meds if possible [there are exceptions]. The first 3 months are the most crucial. Is talk therapy available? If Klonopin (clonazepam) is absolutely necessary then use the lowest possible dose. Check with your obgyn doctor.
