Clonazepam (marketed by Roche under the trade-name Klonopin® in the United States and Rivotril® in Europe, South America and Canada) is a drug which is a benzodiazepine derivative. It is a highly potent anticonvulsant, amnestic and anxiolytic.

Pharmacology

---

Like other benzodiazepines, clonazepam is believed to act by simulating the action of GABA on the central nervous system. Because of strong anxiolytic properties and euphoric side-effects it is said to be among the class of 'highly potent' benzodiazepines with a higher risk of abuse, misuse and dependence than other benzodiazepines, excluding alprazolam which alone is considered to be the most potent. The sedative effects of clonazepam are relatively weak, compared to its strong anxiolytic and anticonvulsant effects. One quarter of a milligram (0.25mg) of clonazepam is approximately equivalent to five milligrams (5.00mg) of diazepam.

Indications

---

Clonazepam is commonly prescribed for:

• Epilepsy
• Anxiety disorder
• Panic attacks
• Restless leg syndrome (RLS)
• Inital treatment of mania, together with firstline-drugs such as lithium, haloperidol or risperidone
• Hallucinogen persisting perception disorder (off-label use)
• Chronic fatigue syndrome
• Night terrors
• Tourette Syndrome - Clonazepam has shown to be helpful in reducing and dealing with the physical motor tics associated with TS, though is still considered an off-label usage by many.
