Clonotril 1 MG Description

Clonotril tablet is a prescription medication used to treat mood disorders, anxiety disorders, depression, and epilepsy (seizures). The active ingredient of the Clonotril tablet is Clonazepam. The mo

de of action of Clonotril tablets works by lowering the excess activity of nerves in the brain by balancing certain chemical messengers and inducing feelings of calmness. Mood disorders such as anxiety disorder, panic disorder, etc., affect how one feels. These conditions are occasionally accompanied by a major depressive disorder. The causes of mood disorders are generally unknown. They may be caused by common triggers like stress, trauma, etc. The other condition that Clonotril tablet helps control is epilepsy, caused by overactivity in the brain. Sleepiness, fatigue, dizziness, etc., are some of the common side effects of Clonotril tablets. This medicine can cause behavioural changes and increase suicidal thoughts and tendencies. It may also lead to physical dependency (return of symptoms when the medicine is stopped) if used long-term. It is essential to monitor the dosage and only take it for the duration the doctor prescribes. Suddenly stopping Clonotril medicine can result in withdrawal symptoms like tremors, sweating, nausea, muscle pain, etc.
