Lonazep is clonazepam a benzo which should not be taken for such a ling time as it is addictive and causes long term side effects. Try to reduce the dose by half every 2 weeks and stop, if not possible consult a psychiatrist who will help in this regard. Good luck.

Hello lybrate-user,
I hope that Paroxetine (Pari CR) and clonazepam (lonazep) were taken with medical advice and guidance. Please seek a consultation with your Psychiatrist to resolve your query. However it seems that weakness, anxiety, and crying spells are related to depression rathee than clonazepam withdrawal. However a more gradual tapering of clonazepam would be recommended. Optimization of Paroxetine dose under medical guidance, along with psychological intervention is advisable. Asse...more

Though lonazep is a mild drug both are respiratory depressants and can cause medical concerns and issues if taken within short time of each other. So better avoid. Good luck

It is a good decision to taper off clonazepam. If you have started taking it for relief from depressed, please practice few relaxation techniques. In that way, you can keep your depressed to an optimum level to function properly.

Q1. I have difficulty in falling asleep and the doctor has recommended lonazep 0.25 mg once every night before bedtime. I have read that lonazep contains clonazepam which is used to reduce anxiety and calm down nerves. Besides, I have learned that lonazep 0.50 mg can induce sleep and is often used as a sleeping aid. So, my question is that 0.25 mg (which has been prescribed to me) being a very light dose, is it sufficient enough to be considered as a sleeping pill though it contains less concentration of clonazepam as compared to 0.50 mg tablet? Does 0.25 mg lonazep tablet having much less sleeping chemical, does it contain sufficient chemicals to be termed as the sleeping pill just as a 0.50 mg tablet? Please elaborate q2. My father had anxiety and stress related problems. He used to feel pressure in his head. And he used to stay awake till late night for office work and this cycle continued. His metabolism and bio cycles have been affected as his body clock is shifted. The normal way the body works has been hampered. Now he says that he cannot sleep even he feels sleepy asif that inbuilt mechanism of thr brain to switch off during relaxation, which is supposed to be automatic is not working. The doctor has recommended anxit 0.25 mg tablet once every night. Is it a sleeping pill like lonazep?

Need to evaluate other contributing factors for your mood state. It could be because you might not have taken it for long enough, this drug may not be working for you, you may have some medical problem which might be contributing for your depression. So, please consider consulting your psychiatrist for further actions to be taken.

Dear lybrate-user Thank to for consulting.
Treatment of anxiety consists of medications as well as psychological therapy. Sometimes, stopping lorazepam can cause rebound Anxiety. It had to be done gradually. Please do not stop the medication without consulting your psychiatrist.
Thanks Feel free to contact me through Lybrate.
