Brief Answer: You need urgent medical attention. Detailed Answer: Hi, Thank you for using Healthcare Magic. If you mean Klonopin rather than Kloipin, then you have taken a significant overdose of this drug which is a benzodiazipine. You should seek urgent medical treatment. Either call the emergency services and explain what you have taken or get someone to take you immediately to the ER. You are likely to become increasingly sleepy, confused and dizzy. Providing you get urgent attention, your overdose can be treated fairly easily but you do need to go to hospital for this. I hope this is of help. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Regards, Dr K A Pottinger, MBChB FRCA
