In reply to Kaiser doc wants to take me off meds that work!, posted by Frustratedmama on April 15, 2012, at 12:05:59
Taking Klonopin with Adderall isn't exactly a speedball. It's very common to have both in a combo.
Say I've tried virtually ever drug combo out there but only Paxil and Klonopin gave some relief except for cognitive brain fog issues. My doc prescribes Ritalin and in a few days that problem is solved. Should he then try to wean me off K because chapter 6 in a textbook says it's antithetical? Thereby throwing you into a tailspin?
If I'm getting far less side effects from this combo than I got on good old dirty Amitriptyline, who cares what the pill is called?
I've gone to ADD forums, bipolar forums and others and it's standard protocol these days.
Somebody enlighten me why, in real world application, a doc shouldn't prescribe this if it works.
