klonipin/or klonipin decrease/breathing

Posted by sgbt5 on February 9, 2001, at 13:03:12

I've been having breathing problems since sept. Am on
albuterol, azamacord, and allegra. Problem (waking up
choking and feeling unable to breathe) occured after I
had transitioned from 2.0 to 0.5 mg klonipin in 0.25
increments. Am being
evaluated by pulmonary, and later allergy and
sleep people.

Pulmanary doc mentioned that klonipin decrease can cause
changes in amount of CO2 in blood, which can affect
when breaths are taken--if I understood her correctly.

Anybody hear about this? (I'm back to the 2.0 mg klonipin
now and wonder if it might have a depresseing effect on
my mood: bipolar and PTSD--on the other hand I seem
to be sleeping through the night.

Thanks in advance. Take care.
