neither klonopin (clonazepam) nor amitriptyline is an mao (monoamineoxidase) inhibitor. but that doesn't mean you should mix them. clonazepam (klonopin) is a benzodiazepine. that means it's in the same class of anti-anxiety drugs as valium. it is also used to treat seizures and panic attacks. amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant. tricyclic antidepressants are the oldest of the antidepressant medications. amitriptyline helps elevate mood. if your health care provider has prescribed both clonazepam and amitriptyline for you then he or she feels they are safe for you to take. however no one should combine medications without the advice of a physician nurse practitioner or pharmacist. if you have any questions about medications your health care provider has prescribed for you you'd be well-advised to make an appointment to discuss all your medications with your provider. he or she can explain what each medication is for and make sure that none of your medications conflict with each other. i hope this information helps!
