Can Kolonopin Cause Blackouts, Sleeping Disorder And Memory Problems?

I have a friend that is prescribed kolonopin for anxiety. When he takes it, he gets increasingly aggressive, blacks out, falls down, sleeps a lot and often gets very forgetful. His girlfriend lives in fear when he is on it. When he is without it, everything is fine. He says that it makes him feel better. I guess I m unsure if this is a natural side effect or if there could be contributing factors?

Hi,

Yes. [5-10%] cases can get these symptoms, he has differential diagnosis psychiatric neurosis. Instead of just using medicines I will recommend to use some breathing exercises [art of living workshops].

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
