I personally know a guy who has been on Clonazepam for seven years now, taking 6 mg daily in three 2 mg doses. He never stops trying to encourage me to give it a try as well, in order to cope better with my tinnitus, which is the reason he takes it. On top of that, he takes it together with an...

Hi, looking for some advice. I have talked about this before on the forum. I took Clonazepam .5mg to 1mg 6-7 times over 3 weeks and then took it continuously either .5 or 1mg for one week. I’ve been tapering now for about 5 weeks. I started the taper at .75 since it was in between dose. I’m...

...I was only able to sleep after about 86 hours of being awake. The next morning, I went to a neurologist who prescribed me 0.5 mg of Clonazepam at night to control the myoclonic jerks. I was scheduled to have an EEG but the lockdown hindered me. My neurologist was not replying to any of my...

1 mg? That's a hefty dose. I'm on 0.5 mg right now, and I can barely keep my eyes open. I agree it helps with the anxiety. But Clonazepam is also hard to get. I can't find a doctor who's willing to prescribe a refill.

...like a busy city street or sidewalk. I know some people frown upon using anti-anxiety medication, but from time to time I take 1 mg of Clonazepam to help me relax. I keep a small supply just for the days when the tinnitus is especially bad, to help me get through it. I also play white noise...

I’ve never tried Clonazepam before. I’ll check if it’s available in Laos and give it a try. Valium is easy to find here, which is why I went with that. Thanks for the tip, @Nick47!

Hi @Paulie87, Clonazepam is well known to reduce tinnitus and hyperacusis for many. Diazepam only seems to reduce the anxiety. I woke up with mine screaming. When I went to bed it was much quieter and softer. @MindOverMatter, did you notice the same in a setback? Waking up with it screaming...

...read elsewhere that you used Xanax to help you while habituating. After my tinnitus worsened last year, my doctor prescribed me .5mg of Clonazepam once per night. I have been taking that now for a little over a year. I feel like I do not need it any longer and continuing to take it makes me...

What are your Clonazepam and Gabapentin dosages? Thanks!

I went off 20 years of Klonopin/Clonazepam and Paxil CR cold turkey in early June 2025. I do not need them anymore (long story, hospital pressure). The next day I took Tylenol (do not do it), then went on Lexapro and Abilify (again, hospital pressure). That is when the tinnitus started badly. I...

Hi everyone. Long time reading this helpful forum but first post. I was prescribed with Clonazepam (Rivotril) 0'25 mg three times/day, 2 weeks ago due to my anxiety problems and mild tinnitus mainly. It seems it doesn't lower my tinnitus level. So, after reading other posts, could be better to...

I would be curious to hear if it is still working since the last time you posted. Did your tinnitus sounds also decrease? I think you are on to something with it being an overactive DCN or VCN. Do you think it would be possible to take natural supplements that increase GABA and achieve the same...

Along with the gabapentin, I got prescribed clonazepam today. I’m scared due to risks of both, however they are only for me to take as needed when my anxiety is severe, not consistently/daily. So I think I’ll be okay. Don’t comment anything suggesting otherwise lol, thanks

Has anybody gotten worse tinnitus during benzo (clonazepam) taper?

You got nox from clonazepam? or any other damage megatron

I am sorry to hear this. Which was the medication that helped you with MEM?

Thanks! I managed to suppress it with medication. The combination of Morphine and Clonazepam likely helped me sleep—it knocked me out for seven hours. I took half a Morphine tablet (2.5 mg), 1 mg of Clonazepam, and 75 mg of Quetiapine.

you still on clonazepam?

I have the exact same thing, right in the middle of the brain. I am 29 too. The cause is probably some kind of poisonous medication. Which medicine are you using? Clonazepam? It is the only thing that calms my centered tinnitus.

Clonazepam is effective for approximately two-thirds of tinnitus patients.

how old are you how long you take clonazepam?

What kind of withdrawal symptoms did you have, please?

How long have you been using Clonazepam?

This has been my exact experience with Clonazepam and distortions/reactive tinnitus as well. I believe your theory is true, and something that reinforces this is the fact that my reactive tinnitus can randomly switch ears over days or weeks. Some elements of the distortions behave the same way...

...few days. I actually left the psychiatric hospital because being stuck indoors was depressing me. My psychiatrist prescribed 0.5 mg of Clonazepam, which has done wonders. I don’t believe it has lowered the noise much, but it has allowed me to go for long periods without monitoring it, and...

I had very mild tinnitus in one ear before taking Clonazepam for an unrelated issue. I took 0.5 mg once a day for about four months, then came off it too quickly. That led to severe tinnitus in my right ear. My doctor suggested going back on Clonazepam and tapering off more slowly, but that...

...Im still living the good days / bad days pattern. Some days my T seems to be more "maskable" than others... The question is... Can I take Clonazepam for a short vacation period? I'm talking about 3, 4...5 days on. No more. What about the dosage? I don't want to change the natural evolution...

You can still get Clonazepam if you find the right neurologist. Of course, it may take consulting with several doctors before one prescribes Clonazepam specifically for tinnitus.

...but louder. I've had tinnitus for 15 months or so in my left ear but I was habituated. Due to a different condition I begun to take Clonazepam 5 months ago. The first 3 months I was taking 0.25 mg (half a pill) and then 0.5 mg. I began withdrawal 20 days ago taking 0.375 mg (three quarters...

I'm on 0.75mg Clonazepam I try to taper down slowly

Thanks for the update. Do you believe that any of the other things you have done, such as practicing mindfulness or continuing with daily life, have contributed to not being consciously aware of it?

So, I've been on clonazepam 0.5 mg for a about four months now, and am thinking it's time to taper off. My ENT said I could probably just stop because it's a low dose, but I don't think I want to do that. I've read through the Ashton, although didn't find a specific taper schedule for 0.5...

A saw a spealist earlier this year who put me on 2mg clonazepam and 50mg amisulpride, he told me if I didn't see any improvements in 2 weeks to stop but he didn't explain why, I had no idea it was addictive. I took it for 2 months. I saw my doctor a week a half ago who told me to stop taking it...

My tinnitus is in my brain. I have so many issues caused by just one poisonous medication. I wish I could take Clonazepam long term — it is the only thing that keeps me alive.

Clonazepam only has an effect on me at 0.5 mg. At 0.25 mg, nothing. No, I do not take anything else.

Weirdly enough, I was prescribed Clonazepam for tinnitus and dysacusis in October 2023. The dysacusis disappeared by about 95%. I had additional noises like echoes, whooshing sounds, metallic tones added to sounds like church bells, clapping (even on TV), cars passing by, running water, the...

Good luck! Clonazepam does nothing for my tinnitus either.

I have been taking Clonazepam 0.5 mg for about 2 weeks to help with sleep but decided not to continue because it was not really helping me. After trying to do a rapid taper my tinnitus went through the roof. So I went back up to my original dosage and started a slower taper at 0.125 mg for 5...

Basically, as @Nes summarized, this is correct: Clonazepam, Amitriptyline, Ginkgo Biloba, and TRT are more effective together than the three medications without TRT. However, the medications were still effective when used in combination without TRT.

Sure, but just avoid taking it more than once per week to be on the safe side and avoid building tolerance and dependency. 2 mg Clonazepam is equal to about 16 to 24 of my Ativan pills! That's when factoring in potency equivalency and half-life differences vs. my Ativan 0.5 mg pills, taking the...

Do you take Clonazepam daily? If so, how much?

...to taper down but went too fast, and all the distortions came back. Unfortunately, my central nervous system couldn’t handle it, so I increased the dosage again. How long did you take Clonazepam before it stopped working? According to Dr. De Ridder, it should work for dysacusis for a lifetime…

Hi all, I am considering to discuss taking Clonazepam with my doctor, as a last resort. I want to try other things first, but since I am noticing a considerable reduction with Zolpidem, I think there is a good chance that same could happen with Clonazepam. It seems to work for quite many, but...

Hi my name is Christi. I had tinnitus for about four years now. I was put on clonazepam to help calm down the ringing in both of my ears. I had to change GP doctors since my other one is no longer in practice. He will not write a prescription for my clonazepam for the tinnitus in both ears...

Hello, I do not take it regularly. I only use it during very difficult periods, and I usually take 0.25 to 0.5 mg every three days, one to three hours before sleeping. I have never taken it for more than two weeks.

Since 2010. I only take it when the tinnitus is severe. If Clonazepam is taken too often, one can build up a resilience to it. Fortunately, this hasn't happened to me. I wish you well, Michael

Administer 1 mg of Clonazepam twice a day on your worst days. Use a jacuzzi or jetted tub to relax, soak your lower neck muscles, and remain in a calm, sedated state until you feel some improvement. Use nighttime sleeping earbuds to mask the sound, and keep a fan running in your room most of the...

@ErikaS, I have taken both Clonazepam and Diazepam. In my experience, 1 mg of Clonazepam feels similar to 10 mg of Diazepam. However, there's no way it's equal to 20 mg of Diazepam, as 20 mg would knock me out. This conversion chart lists 1 mg of Lorazepam as equivalent to 0.5 mg of Clonazepam...

@Nick47, how easy is it to get Clonazepam and Gabapentin prescribed as a new patient in the UK?

Hello Nes! Does clonazepam help you?

clonazepam made it worse for you? how long you took mate and how old are you let me know. i have generalized panic disorder ocd.

Interesting because it seems to be used for the treatment of epilepsy as well. Maybe this is a natural Clonazepam. 😉 I ordered it from hommi.jp.
