Need To Find A New Dr To Write Klonopin

Updated

My Drs Nurse Practitioner in all her glory decided that after 27 yrs on Benzos (12 on Xanax & the last 15 on 4-6mg per day, I no longer needed it. HAHA So stupid of her. For 4 mths I have gone thru withdrawls frm hell! Tried calling her & my Dr and they wont return my calls. I have to talk to tbe receptionist only. I asked to be put back on my Klonopin I was told by recep that my request was "denied" So I ordered some online. I went to ER and waz told my BP & Hr were fine a.d they could not help me! So I have yet to find a Dr, even a Psych who will write Klonopin! I take the Med for panic attacks and anxiety! I need a Dr so if u know anyone please share!

Where are you located?

This site is open internationally, so if someone knows of a doctor in London, it won't be helpful if you're in the U.S.

Learn more Klonopin details here.

Did they say why they will no longer prescribe it?

Where in the US are you located sweetie? I here the makings of a malpractice suit if you ask me! Your doctor CANNOT just cut you off like that on a drug as STRONG as Klonopin. I am in Texas. {edited for privacy}. I am disabled and on Fentynll, Norco, soma, baclofen, and tramadol. I know if they were to just cut me off like that, it would destroy me so, I feel horrible for you.. My prayers are with you...

I'm sorry to hear this. It is abusive to suddenly stop a benzo...they have to be tapered. I will pray for you. Here is a free book to help people taper off various drugs, including klonopin: theroadback.org. The book is free online or they will email it to you, and you can also email them with questions.

I would contact your state medical board and talk to them, or a related agency. Ask your provider WHY she assumes "you no longer need it" and get the exact reasons so you know what you are dealing with. Are they under pressure to get people off the drug from some other agency? You can request your medical records if they won't talk to you. You may have to pay for the copying. Request only those portions or dates that you need. Contact any national or state wide agency for mental health or that seems to fit. There are some that have phone lines during the day. You can file a complaint online with your state attorney general office (maybe) and you could try a complaint online with FCC....they are more consumer oriented but they do get results. Write a letter to your local newspaper about what happened and ask the readership for help. Try contacting the drug manufacturer and ask for help.
Wow this just makes me so mad. I'm sorry you were treaeted this way there is so much denial and ignorance in this area. Medical professionals should be educated about withdrawal and people should be warned before they start a drug.
I will pray that you get help. Keep reaching out for help till you get it.

What creeps me out is the NP was making this decision. I will say since State laws have been changed in many States many people are suffering and dying.

I don't think you could sue for anything unless you died or suffered damages that could be linked to the NP. You can't write to the Xanax company as suggested above, I enjoyed that!

Nicole,
There's a very good reason why docs have refrained from prescribing these once popular benzo class drugs issued like m&m's at the corner store its because they are dangeroous prescribed alone or worse in conjunction with other cns depressants. Those who say fight for your rights have OBVIOUSLY NEVER BEEN FLAGGED OR DENIED FUTURE MEDICAL CARE. It's easy to sit behind a keyboard and pontificate about the rights of others when they are comfy and medicated why not just say BEST SEEK A PROFESSIONAL WHO specializes in mental health.they better then most can appreciate the needs of the patients and has there best interests at heart.
