Get a new pdoc.! Your doctor should not be prescribing medication that he/she knows nothing about. All benzodiazepines have the possible issues of physiological tolerance, addiction, and withdrawal. That is why they are generally rx'ed as a prn. and at a low dose. Say with clonazepam .5- 1mg prn. I'm sorry but your doctor needs to go back to school.
