Too Much?

[katemom]

I take 12 mg of Klonopin, 150 mg of Trazadone and 40 mg of Paxil a day. Does that seem right?

Oh, I found out the hard way what you were all talking about. I lost the stupid bottle of K-Pins, my whole family searched the house inside out, and I figured I'd be cool until Monday when I could talk to my doctor. Instead, I ended up in the emergency room, having grand mal seizures over and over, and topped off with a mild heart attack. I seriously thought I had the flu, but when the whole bed starting shaking and the nurse ran off to get the doctor. I fell of the damn bed, and when I finally woke up, I had saline and Valium coursing through my veins. The doctor explained how quickly the withdrawal can set in from Klonopin, and I didn't have the flu, I was withdrawing. I'm still shaking like a leaf (involuntarily). You were all so right. 36 hours w/o them, and I'm in the hospital with a damn heart attack. Very very mild, but it happened.

no. it doesn't sound like you are taking too much.

the klonopin will help with anxiety, but it's not always effective for insomnia. the trazadone is wonderful for that, and it also helps with depression, as does the paxil.

just do not ever quit any of these medications cold turkey. you will need to taper off them.

Klonopin-is for anxiety.. Your thinking of Clonidine, for high blood pressure.



IMO it doesnt seem like too much, if thats what your asking.
BUT...why would you need the Trazadone after taking Klonopin all day?

oh and, you'll get more replies on "the otherside"
