Does Clonazepam Cause The Feeling Of Being Sedated?

I was taking Zoloft, got off of it due to diarrhea then started taking Paxil...got off of that due to sexual side effects.i added Wellbutrin when I was on Paxil but that didn t seem to help so now I m off Paxil. I went to the dr this week and he added Clorazapam twice a day. I feel so drugged up and tired. Is the Clorazapam necessary or could I take it as needed? I feel like I ve had two glasses of wine all day long...

Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thanks for your query.
Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine and produces sedation . Start with a tablet at night and once you have got used to it and have overcome the sedative effect, add the next dose.
Take care
