Taking lunesta and klonopin together
Common Questions and Answers about Taking lunesta and klonopin together
lunesta
ll alternate between the valerian and the Klonopin, and only on as as needed basis. I am trying to keep my prozac at 40 ml, as more than that does keep me awake at night.
I've nearly reached menopause, so maybe my good sleep of the long-ago past will some day return!
Sorry this is so lengthy, Dr. Rajput!
As of last week (maybe two weeks ago), I had reduced my Klonopin intake from 3 MG/day to 1.5 MG/day.
That's a tough one. I would recommend the Substance Abuse forum. They are really good about knowing what happens when you come off certain meds and they know about all kids of med mixes.
Is he trying to come off the Xanax and Klonopin, too? It sounds like it could be from withdrawing from the meds, but it could also be from the mix. I have no idea.
Klonopin is a benzo and should have a sort of 'sedative' effect on you...it usually will calm you down and is actually a longer acting than others in the same class like Ativan or Xanax. However, medications affect people in different ways. If you are having problems with this go back and talk to your doctor about it. Just don't stop taking it or adjust dosage on your own. Keep us posted!
I can personally say that I was prescribed 8 mgs of Suboxone and 2 mgs of Klonopin per day. I had been on the Klonopin for a while before I started the Suboxone. And I was very eager to get off the Suboxone, so I always kept my dose at the threshold of withdrawal...not taking amounts that would get me high.
For me, the Klonopin was actually a very helpful tool in tapering down my Suboxone.
I never tried remeron, but ambien was horrible and so was resterol the taste of the lunesta that it leaves in your mouth is horrible so there is no easy answer but I did find the ativan did help for a while and I still take it with the lunesta and I agree if I get a good nights sleep the next day is much better.
It depends on what the Klonopin was prescribed for. If you need Adderal for ADD, Fibro, Naro, etc and still suffer from anxiety then this might be a good combo for you. I am on 30mg Adderal a day with a script for 1mg Xanex 3 times daily or as needed. For me, I have had the same xanex bottle for some time as Adderal has reduced my anxiety. My boyfriend however gets extremely anxious esp while the adderal is setting in, and taking it wouldn't be possible without a mild downer.
well i am on 2 different antidepressants right now. and the klonopin. i was also taking xanax for sleep, but it was way too strong for me so i canned it myself. but i have ALWAYS had sleep issues, i have no problems falling asleep, but i cant stay asleep, i wake up 2-5 times per night, so i wake up every morning feeling completely unrested and just drained. i suffer from major depressive disorder, anxiety and panic also.
I started taking Ambien & Prozac in Oct 2009. I started building a resistance so my doctor prescribed for me Restoril, that didn't work so she started me on Lunesta. After I started building a resistance to the Lunesta my doctor prescribed for me Ambien CR 12.5mg. It's now March 2010 and I need 4 or more Ambien CR to sleep. I can't sleep without it!!! I haven't taken the CR 12.5mg in 24hr and I have the common addiction symptoms.
I did try to research Lunesta and Addrell together, not finding anything on those 2 together. The info I find on long term Lunesta use states if the person does not have prior drug abuse (I've never had this issue) there was reason to be concerned. I was not having any side effects from them at all.
Question- has anyone else had problems with Lunesta and Adderall? or heard of anyone having issues with these meds? Or a reliable study showing these results or similar.
I started having awful anxiety attacks and had to go on klonopin. I went back to work and was doing so much better until I had this last back surgery 7 wks ago. Then the anxiety got much worse. The afternoon problem has been there for a year. My doctor said it is anxiety. If so, will it ever go away? Sorry about such a long answer. I just need some help with this. I'm like so many I hear from on here, I want my life back.
i take it in the afternoon....i just got lunesta to take for the insomnia and that really doesn't work and I also just switched to klonopin from xanax....
