How do I take clonazepam?

Clonazepam can be purchased at your local pharmacy as a tablet or an orally dissolving tablet. You may only buy clonazepam with a prescription. This medication is usually taken with a full glass of water one to three times daily. Dissolving clonazepam tablets should not be pushed through foil packaging, rather foil should be pulled back and the tablet should be placed in mouth immediately to avoid breaking or losing part of the tablet.

Clonazepam should be taken at regular intervals throughout the day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take clonazepam exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it than what is prescribed by your doctor.

Continue doses of clonazepam even if you feel better. Never stop taking clonazepam without asking your doctor first, even if you experience side effects such as unusual changes in behavior or mood. If you suddenly stop taking clonazepam withdrawal symptoms such as problems sleeping, nausea, anxiety, pain, and sweating may occur. If taking clonazepam to treat seizures, a sudden stop in medicating may cause you to experience seizures more frequently.

What should I do if I forget a dose?

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember it. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

• Difficulty stay staying awake

• Confusion

Before taking clonazepam, tell your doctor if:

• You are allergic to clonazepam, other benzodiazepines such as alprazolam (Xanax), chlordiazepoxide (Librium, in Limbitrol), clorazepate (Gen-Xene, Tranxene), diazepam (Valium), estazolam, flurazepam (Dalmane), lorazepam (Ativan), midazolam (Versed), oxazepam, temazepam (Restoril), triazolam (Halcion), or any other medications.

• You are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding.

• You are taking herbal products, especially St. John's wort.

• You have or have ever had glaucoma or liver disease.

• You drink or have ever drunk large amounts of alcohol, use or have ever used street drugs or have abused prescription medications.

It is important for you to keep a written list of all of the prescription and nonprescription medicines you are taking, as well as any products such as vitamins, minerals, or other dietary supplements. Bring this list with you when you visit the doctor to get a prescription for clonazepam and each time you visit a doctor or are admitted to a hospital. It is also important information to carry with you in case of emergencies.

What are the possible side effects of taking clonazepam?

Clonazepam can have unwanted side effects on mental health such as depression and suicidal thoughts. A small number of adults and children 5 years of age and older (about 1 in 500 people) who took anti-epileptics such as clonazepam during clinical studies became suicidal during their treatment. Some of these people developed suicidal thoughts and behavior as early as one week after they started taking the medication. However, if your condition is not treated, mental changes to your health could also occur. You and your doctor will decide whether the risks of taking an anti-epileptic medication are greater than the risks of not taking the medication.

The patient or the patient’s caregiver should call the doctor immediately if any of the following symptoms occur: panic attacks, agitation or restlessness, new or worsening irritability, anxiety, or depression, acting on dangerous impulses, difficulty sleeping, aggressive, angry, or violent behavior, mania (unusually excited mood), talking or thinking about wanting to hurt oneself or commit suicide, withdrawing from friends and family, preoccupation with death and dying, giving away treasured belongings, or any other unusual changes in behavior or mood.

Be sure that the caregiver knows which symptoms may be serious so he or she will call the doctor if the individual taking the medication is unable to seek treatment.

Other side effects include:

• Drowsiness

• Euphoria

• Confusion

• Irritability or aggression

• Loss of libido

• Impaired motor function

• Hallucinations

These are not all the side effects of taking clonazepam. Clonazepam may cause other side effects. Report severe side effects and changes in mood to your doctor immediately.

How do I store clonazepam?

Throw away any medication that is outdated or no longer needed. Talk to your pharmacist about safe disposal of your medication.
