Comment:
I had terrible anxiety and panic attacks. After my first 1/2 dose of clonazepam I stopped having panic attacks. I have been on this medication for over 10 years at .5mg. Recently I was told there is a risk of cognitive impairment with long term use and the doctor wanted me to wean off and take something else. I won't do it because for me this medication saved my life.

Comment:
Listen to the other reviewers. This is the worst drug to come off of and doctors will not agree on the effects that your body is putting you in withdrawal. This leaves the patient to advocate for himself. This is a BAD DRUG. It should be taken off the market.
