Sedation: Dizziness and excess sedation are side effects. The goal with Clonazepam and anxiety is to take the edge off of anxiety to allow people to function but not be so tired and exhausted that they can't function.

SE's: Clonazepam: Clonazepam is part of the benzodiazepine group of medications. These are sedatives and anti-anxiety medications. Benzo's (as they are known) are very addictive. They cause calmness and sedation.
It is very hard to break a benzo addiction.
So, please use this drug sparingly and very carefully.
