I take klonopin maybe 2x p week PO at 2mg. I had botox (32) units. Afterword (maybe 24hrs later I took Klonapin 1mg. I have heard that Klonapin can decrease the effects of botox. Should I be worried about having bad results or notox?

Answer: Botox and clonazepam There are no studies showing any reduction in efficacy of either when used simultaneously. As with everything else, these are due to unsubstantiated anecdotal online reports. You likely take clonazepam for anxiety and I would recommend avoiding anything that may exacerbate your anxiety.

Answer: Klonopin and Botox I have several patients who take Klonopin and receive effective Botox treatments lasting a normal amount of time, 3-4 months. So in my experience, Klonopin has no effect on Botox treatments or results. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
