@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member Do you keep a diary of the seizures and everything related to them? Klonopin (name brand for Clonazepam) helped me to reduce seizures even when I shifted to the generic form of it.

Mostly clonazepam makes me tired which usually will stop any ssizure activity. Im not on a high dosage but it seems to work fine. Ive only ever taken it when im feeling “off”, or right after ive had a seizure

It is my rescue med to stop seizure clusters so I take it once every month or so. It is very good at stopping seizures and that's all it does for me. I take the fast acting disolve under the tongue type and we call it by the generic name clonazepam.

Nope. It’s what I’m diagnosed for stopping my seizures and it works well
