In reply to Newbie ? about Effexor EX and Klonopin, posted by Liz Wolf on May 1, 2002, at 5:58:05
Hi, I'm new too!
Effexor and Klonopin are fine to take together. Klonopin is a benzodiezapine (hope I spelled that right) and mainly for anxiety relief. Effexor is supposed to help anxiety and depression.
I was told to take Effexor in the morning. I don't really like the idea though, because I am pretty sensitive to feeling a sudden change in my mental faculties.
I am not taking the EX, I'm taking the regular.
With the increase in Klonopin you will probably feel more sedated for a little while, but it is less adictive than Xanax, Valium, or Ativan. If it keeps the anxiety down, that's great.
