Post Zoloft/Clonazepam

Has anyone taking Zoloft with Clonazepam experienced continuous back aches, muscle spasms? I have been on these meds for almost 6 weeks now 50mg Zoloft and up to 1mg of Colnozepam daily

Well, I clipped this off the Roche site for Klonopin. Back pain is among the adverse effects. They use klonopin to cover up Zolofts' side effects like sleep/anxiety issues. If you look under benzo addiction, more will be found regarding Klonopin and other benzodiazepines. Alarming stuff that is basically ignored by the psychiatric community(otherwise they'd lose alot of customers). What I clipped is below:


Musculoskeletal System Disorders: back pain, fracture traumatic, sprains and strains, pain leg, pain nape, cramps muscle, cramps leg, pain ankle, pain shoulder, tendinitis, arthralgia, hypertonia, lumbago, pain feet, pain jaw, pain knee, swelling knee


However, looking at zoloft adverse effects, back pain is also listed. I guess any psychoactive substance that works on the brain and nervous system will cause some muscular problems. Anyway, it's definately a possibility that one or both drugs are causing this...but it's always good to get a medical opinion so a back X-ray might be in order. If that turns out fine, you may have to accept pain as a part of the drug therapy. I certainly wouldn't, but that's only me.

Jennita,

I had a chest x-ray done 1 1/2 month ago when my anxiety/panic attacks started and it was normal. Thanks a million for you input.I appreciate it. Hopefully, these pains will subside once the Zoloft takes full effect.

again thank you

Ok, hopefully it will subside. Did you also have a back X-ray? Better safe than sorry. Good luck with everything and always remember medical tests are never frivolous, they are necessary for peace of mind.
