Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

The causes for poor attention and concentration are multiple and it is possible that anxiety is probably main cause for distractibility. In elderly population benzodiazepines such as clonazepam impair cognitive function and possibly clonazepam is contributing to distractibility.

In my opinion taking your clonazeam tablet at evening time could help you in better way than the morning dose.

I hope this helps you.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
