It seems that klonopin is used often as an anti-anxiety med. It tends to be used a lot longer than other benzos. Usually xanax, ativan, etc. are used for short-term relief. But klonopin seems to be used for quite awhile. Is there any reason for this? Does klonopin have better results or is it less difficult to withdraw from? I get the feeling that when someone develops tolerance the doc just ups the dose and keeps the klonopin effective. It seems like its used much more commonly than other benzos. If its so accepted and prescribed, why do some docs seem against it? Any info is greatly appreciated.
