Clotas 0.25 MG Description
Clotas Tablet is therapeutically classified as an antiepileptic medicine with clonazepam as its active ingredient. It is prescribed to treat epileptic seizures, panic disorders and severe anxiety.
GABA (gamma-Aminobutyric Acid) is a chemical messenger that produces a feeling of calmness. Sometimes sudden chemical changes occur that reduce GABA below normal and increase the brain's electrical activity, causing fits called epileptic seizures. Clonazepam, the active ingredient in Clotas Tablet, increases the level of GABA, calms the brain and body, and relieves anxiety, panic, and epileptic seizures. Clotas Tablet should be taken as prescribed by your doctor. The duration and dose of taking Clotas Tablet vary depending on the patient’s condition and age. Clotas Tablet has a habit-forming potential and may cause physical dependence and hence should not be stopped suddenly without consulting your doctor. This medicine may cause minor to serious side effects. It is advised to consult your doctor before starting treatment with Clotas Tablet and get complete information on its potential side effects and benefits.
