Doc's prescribing Clonazepam off label for pain?

I have posted threads with advice on how too keep Clonazepam scripts coming with the ever increasing "Benzophobic" Doc's out there. My concern would be that there are other med's now available and you may get something you do not want or need? Too busy right now to research costochondritis but hope you are well and this may help your condition, if you still have it. Thanks for the Tip as we need all the help we can get these days with the uncertainty of reliable OP's-FF
Thanks, Fishfarmer
I very much appreciate your well wishes and I think that you raise a great point when wondering if there is now a new medication for something like CC that might be offered instead of the C-Pam. In my experience, there really isn't anything better and safer...but leave it to a benzophobic doc to come up with something!  I would imagine that a person might be offered Lyrica or Neurontin, but taking either for CC would be like using a sledgehammer to kill a fly. And with the rising recreational use of those two drugs, especially Lyrica, they may soon be thrown in the benzo boat by prescribers. I do not think that there is anything as effective at slowing motor neuron communication than a benzo. They allow your overactive, over-communicating nerves to get a break, which allows your muscles to get a break. They have helped me with my CC, and with muscle hyperactivity related to a disease that I have. A Godsend, to be sure. I would love to see them in the hands of every person who legitimately needs them. Have a great night.
