What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking clonazepam?
Before taking clonazepam, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have: • kidney or liver disease; • glaucoma; • asthma, emphysema, bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD), or other breathing problems; • a history of depression or suicidal thoughts or behavior; or • a history of drug or alcohol addiction. If you have any of these conditions, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely take this medication.
