I addressed the title to Ame b/c Ame also uses Picamilon, but anybody can put their two cents in:
I've shied away from using Klonopin b/c I don't want to gain tolerance to it. Many researchers think the tolerance developes b/c the body starts reducing GABA production b/c Klono increases efficiency of the GABA system.
So my question is: say I take .5 mg/day of Klonopin, and eventually it begins to lose its anti-anxiety effects b/c of decreased GABA production. Do you think supplementation with Picamilon, which is GABA bonded to niacin, would make up for that deficit without me having to raise the klonopin dose? For those that have taken both Klono and Picamilon, what has been your experience along these lines? Thanks for the input...
