Clonazepam for Sleep Disorder

Does anyone have experience taking Clonazepam for any sleep disorders?

I have just been prescribed it for NREM Parasomnia but I am worried about its side effects, and apparently it loses effectiveness over time?

Any experiences would be appreciated.

  1. I have used clonezepam before, but my understanding is that it shouldn't be used longterm because it is habit-forming and tapering off can be difficult. Your doctor would be the best person to ask about the safest way to use it in this situation. All that said, it can be a fantastic tool in the right circumstances and I hope it's a good fit for you! Wishing you well. -Melissa, team member

    1. Hi . I have no experience with clonazepam, but here is an article from someone who had short-term success with it: https://insomnia.sleep-disorders.net/living/success-story. I hope you get some feedback from other members and, most important, that you get relief with few or no side effects. Warmly, Lori (Team Member)
