hi amy (and you're welcome for the brief answer i provided above), my guess is that (as chemist probably said above, but i can't remember :))the memory problems are dose related, and minimal with klonopin anyway. I take 1 mg a day as a maintainance dose; if I ever go over that for something anxiety-provoking like a visit with the family, I get slightly groggy, but can still remember most of what transpired (for better or worse!). I would guess that on balance, the number of things I forgot due to anxiety far outweighs what I've forgotten due to klonopin-related effects,during a similar time-period. Anxiety can be a mind-killer too.
