Klonopin (Clonazepam) is a benzodiazepine medication with the side effects and withdrawal symptoms being similar to other benzodiazepines. These medications lower brain activity and as a result, there are some common symptoms.
Benzodiazepines can (and have) produce habituation, dependence and withdrawal symptoms similar to those noted with barbiturates and alcohol. It is advised that patients who may be prone to increasing the dose of drugs on their own initiative should be under careful monitoring when receiving clonazepam.

Klonopin, like most drugs only stimulate a temporary release of your brain's pre-existing supply of neurotransmitters . . .
THEY DO NOTHING TO INCREASE
THE PRODUCTION OF NEUROTRANSMITTERS.
Once pre-existing supplies of neurotransmitters are exhausted, these drugs are unable to stimulate the production and release of additional neurotransmitters.
Long term use of benzodiazepines results in the reduction of certain normal neurotransmitter availability, mainly those which are associated with the Gamma Amino Butyric Acid, GABA, receptor site.
As the GABA brain site is continuously provided with drugs which mimic the configuration and action of normal neurotransmitters the brain begins to reduce their production in favor of the easily available medication.
These drugs, while effective for short-term relief of acute anxiety, produce significant withdrawal difficulties if used for more than 2 - 4 weeks as recommended by the manufacturers.
Neu-Relieve . . .Doctor Recommended
Brain Nutrition When Discontinuing Tranquilizers!
Neu-Relieve™ (previously called NeuRecover-BZ) is a special formula consisting of vitamins, minerals and amino acids designed to nutritionally support production of the neurotransmitters that are depleted by the long term use of tranquilizers.
Beginning in September, 2002 . . . thirty-five men and women from various localities in the United States agreed to participate in a blind, placebo controlled study to evaluate the effectiveness of Neu-Relieve in reducing the withdrawal symptoms associated with recovery from use of benzodiazepines.
Participants were given either a placebo (inert ingredients) or Neu-Relieve™, each for a one-month period, and did not know which they were receiving.
No one reported better effects with placebo . . .
And 9 out of 10 reported reduced withdrawal symptoms with Neu-Relieve™.
As previously stated this supplement has been shown to reduce the acute and protracted withdrawal symptoms, which make the recovery process so difficult.
Neu-Relieve™ is NOT intended to take the place of benzodiazepines. Benzodiazepines should never be stopped abruptly. This supplement provides nutritional support for natural replenishment of neurotransmitters depleted by the tranquilizers.
