In reply to Klonopin causeing depression? Salivation? comments, posted by Paulbwell on May 19, 2005, at 21:57:17
> i had terrible excess salivation (would always be spitting:( ) on this and i'm sure it caused depression, (funny Cause i'v read it's a 5ht releaser) Ritalin masked this somewhat, I was taken off it 6mgs daily, (by a different PsyDoc who commented the this dose was what a hospital inpatient with psychosis would be on--EEK) and put on Valium for a benzo reduction, starting at 40mgs daily down to 20mgs now, valium can cause depression, but i find less so.

> Cheers folksThat's odd. Klonopin gives me a dry mouth, even at .5mg a day. It does make me somewhat depressed.
