Klonopin is used both as a prescription drug for a variety of situations that include seizure control, anxiety disorders, etc and as a recreational drug for the sedative relaxing effect that it produces. Frequent and regular use is associated with tolerance and physical dependence, which develops into addiction.

When those who are suffering from Klonopin addiction try to stop using, the withdrawals may begin within hours or days from discontinuation of the drug. The time frame can fluctuate with the degree of tolerance, how long the drug has been continually used as well as the amount of the last consumed dose. Dangers for those who try to quit using Klonopin abruptly on their own are convulsions which may result in death, delusions, psychosis, etc. Klonopin withdrawal should always be performed under a physician’s care.

Death as a result of Klonopin overdose is possible, but uncommon. The likelihood of death greatly increases when large quantities of Klonopin are combined with alcohol, methadone, barbiturates, opiates, or tricyclic antidepressants.
