Brief Answer:
Yes it can be taken but take care of sedation

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

Antihistamines can be taken along with klonopin and paxil as there no significant interaction between these two medications.

You need to take care of not operating machinery as they can cause significant sedation resulting in impairment of motor activities.

I hope this helps you.
Thanks and regards
