I was prescribed Klonopin for 7 years at amounts up to 4mg daily (admittedly took more at times). It is extremely addictive. I wasn't told about the tolerance profile, nor did any so-called professionals recognize withdrawal symptoms when presented. I tried tapering off a couple of times with no success. I finally went cold turkey 4 years ago. The withdrawal was horrible, to say the least. No more prescription drugs for me. For some very good info, visit:
