Brief Answer:
Increase sedation, potential for interaction
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking!
Opioid( morphine) and anxiolytic ( Clonazepam) has only on ething to look for and that is sedation.they both potentiate each other's effects and make the sedation marked to dangerous levels that is why it is usually avoided to take both simultaneously or be on strict observation and monitoring for that. Get to your prescriber if need be in case of some sedation issues and let them reshuffle the dosages to the lowest minimum possible.
I hope it helps.Take good care and don't forget to close the discussion please.
May the odds be ever in your favour.
