I'm on it, and no it doesn't make me sleepy - or at least not that I've noticed.

Been on it for a few months. Suppose to make me sleepy, but doesnt.

I use klonopin as needed. It makes me very sleepy. i found that I am quite sensitive to drugs in general so I reduced from .5 to .25
This lower dose is more easily tolerated by me. I can still drive and function on it but it lasts a long time and will till be in my body hours later. If I take .5 it is difficult for me to function sharply! What dose are you on? Can you lower it or cut it in half? Try it at different times? __________________  [/url] |
