Not completely sure: Clonazepam is not typically associated with rapid weight loss when discontinuing it and I have not seen that,but it's possible it's happened in studies before.I do hope you tapered off the medication as abruptly stopping can cause major problems such as worsened anxiety,tremors,seizures and other mental problems.Bad dry cough is also not known to commonly cause weight loss unless you aren't eating
