Can weed cause seizures on these meds I'm taking?
    #28642135 - 01/31/24 05:02 PM (3 months, 14 days ago)

I had a seizure from alcohol withdrawal on New Years Eve, and have abstained from both weed and alcohol since. I'm on the following meds:

Wellbutrin 300mg
Concerta 18mg
Clonazepam 0.5mg, twice a day
Clozapine 500mg

I plan on staying away from alcohol, but is it safe to just smoke small ammounts of weed every now and then?

I don't have an answer but just out of curiosity how much booze were you drinking to cause a seizure during withdrawal

It's actually the Clonazepam that causes seizures, I was prescribed that when I was 19, stopped when I was 26 then the seizures started. I used to have them often about 4-6 times a year but now it's just about every 6 months. If I use cannabis at least once every 3 days I don't have them but I still have them I didn't smoke for a week and had a seizure for the first time in a while I'm 32 now. It sucks but stick with it and get off the benzos if u feel like you can do it. It improved my life a lot when I got off benzos it took me about 6 months to completely taper off of them and it was the worst withdrawal I've ever been through. Back in the 90s and early 2000s doctors were handing out tons of benzos but they are extremely addictive

At the time of my seizure, I was taking between 6 and 8 drinks almost every day.

Should I stay away from weed then? Or is 0.5g every Saturday evening ok?

I’ve seen one person have a mini seizure from a bong hit. It was mixed with tobacco.

Not sure how common seizures are with weed though, I’d guess it’s pretty rare. But this one person has had multiple seizures from smoking cones.

I think if you were going to do it, it would be wise to ease into it as slowly as possible. Don’t take a big hit, just test really small amounts. But if you feel like it’s too much of a risk then it’s probably wise to stay away from it

Good for you dude! I know someone with addiction issues that got an owi from drinking on clonazepam. I watch a lot of crime/police/bodycam videos and it's scary how common klonopin/clonazepam are in DUI arrests and other foolery. That sucks it causes other longterm effects, but no one's perfect.
