natnicwhit	BRAND NAME: Klonopin DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Clonazepam is an anti-anxiety medication in the benzodiazepine family, the same family that includes Diazepam (Valium), Alprazolam (Xanax), Lorazepam (Ativan), Flurazepam (Dalmane), and others. Clonazepam and other Benzodiazepines act by enhancing the effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid (Gaba) in the brain. Gaba is a neurotransmitter (a chemical that nerve cells use to communicate with each other) which inhibits many of the activities of the brain. It is believed that excessive activity in the brain may lead to anxiety or other psychiatric disorders. Clonazepam also is used to prevent certain types of seizures. SIDE EFFECTS: The most commonly noted side effects associated with Clonazepam are sedation, which is reported in approximately 1 in 2 people (one-half of patients), dizziness (one-third of patients), weakness, and unsteadiness. Other side effects include a feeling of depression, loss of orientation, headache, and sleep disturbance. Like all Benzodiazepines, Clonazepam can cause physical dependence. Suddenly stopping therapy after a few months of daily therapy may be associated with a feeling of loss of self-worth, agitation, and insomnia. If Clonazepam is taken continuously for longer than a few months, stopping therapy suddenly may produce seizures, tremors, muscle cramping, vomiting, and/or sweating. Therefore, discontinuation usually is accomplished by tapering the dose. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
