In reply to Klonopin one of safest drugs ever made, posted by UgottaHaveHOPE on July 18, 2006, at 10:59:42
Well, like other benzodiazapines, it IS known to be highly addictive for a number of people, and for them, it can therefore become less than safe. I think a person can become addicted or develope tolerance without ever having any recreational intentions at all. There are also some dangers to navigate when tapering down or experiencing withdrawal due to seizure potential and other effects. Pros and cons.But I agree, overall a very, very, very helpful drug for many.
Respectfully,
