Clopam 0.5 mg Tablet is a prescription medication used in the treatment of anxiety and epilepsy or seizures. It relieves the stress in the brain by reducing aberrant and hyperactive nerve cell activi

ty. Clopam 0.5 mg Tablets can be consumed with or without meals. However, it is advised to take them at the same time every day, though, to ensure a steady dose of medication in your body. Because this medication has a habit-forming potential, take it exactly as your doctor prescribes. If you fail a dosage, take it as fast as you recall, and if you feel a lot better, complete the whole course of therapy. Abruptly discontinuing this prescription might cause nausea, flu-like symptoms, anxiety, and muscular discomfort. Sadness, fatigue, and a loss of coordination are frequent adverse effects of Clopam Tab. It might also make you dizzy or sleepy, so do anything else that demands mental attention until you realise how this prescription affects you. It's critical to tell your doctor if you experience any odd mood swings or despair, as this medication has the potential to promote suicidal thoughts.
