A member asked:

Is long term low dose klonopin (clonazepam) use safe? i have been really anxious the past couple of weeks and have been taking .25mg daily (sometimes .5mg)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Usually with: Benzo’s for anxiety, patients are evaluated for side effects, tolerance to the drug, etc , at least every three months. There may be a risk of addiction depending on multiple factors. Safety profile is good if not mixed with alcohol, other sedating medications, or controlled substances. Please discuss w/your prescriber re: other meds that you’re taking. Good luck!
