I have been taking 2-3mg of Klonopin (clonazepam) per day for about 4 years now. The medication works great for my RABM-VI Panic Disorder I have. But now I am taking a look back at these brain zaps that I get every day, and I can trace it back to ever since I started taking this medication. I also take Diazepam for GAD, and sleep apnea (from anxiety).

Has anyone else got these brain zaps while on and taking the Klonopin (clonazepam)? The brain zaps seem to be worse in the morning, and nothing takes the brain zaps away except other medications...like neurological nerve blockers, anti-seizure etc..

This medication works so will for my panic disorder, but I have no idea where these brain zaps are coming from or why would a benzo (Klonopin) cause brain zaps when I am NOT even in withdrawl?

Thanks and God Bless
 
yes! I get brain zaps from clonazapam. I only take 5mg when needed, which hasent been for a while, but the day after i take it i get these zaps in my head, and mild twitching that i cannot stop. it eventually goes away but is not fun.
 
Anyone ever get them so bad that it feels like someone put car battery cables inside of your head? I'm not talking your general, cutsie little prickly, 9V battery type of deal one might get w/ Buspar... but I mean... POW!!!!

Anyone?
