She has been very irresponsible in openly encouraging people not to take the drug - especially when some people may stand to benefit from it if they take it as prescribed, but instead they take the unqualified advice of a musician. She holds herself responsible for her cocaine abuse, she ought to hold herself responsible for her own prescription medication abuse, and for not seeking help earlier when she knew she had a problem. It's a bit of a cop-out to blame mistakes on a drug rather than your choices and drug taking which led to the mistakes.
Right... But the memory loss was a side effect of the Klonopin. Therefore it's due to the Klonopin that she can't remember certain periods of time. Stevie's personal responsibility for her addiction/usage doesn't change that. You can blame the Klonopin for its effects on Stevie, but the Klonopin didn't take itself.
