Klonaz Es Tablets Description
Klonaz Es Tab is a prescription medication commonly used to manage depression and anxiety disorders. Anxiety and other mood disorders like depression affect how you feel, your behaviour and your mood
. Klonaz Es Tab helps stabilise the mood by lowering the excess activity of nerves in the brain. It has a sedation and relaxation effect on our mind and mood. Klonaz Es Tab is a combination medicine that contains clonazepam and escitalopram as its main ingredient. Escitalopram works on the brain to prevent the re-uptake of serotonin, thereby increasing the level of serotonin in the nerve cells. Serotonin modulates various behavioural processes, including mood, memory, fear, appetite, stress response, and more. Clonazepam causes calming effects on the brain by increasing an inhibitory neurotransmitter called GABA (gamma-Aminobutyric acid) and increasing serotonin synthesis. It is suggested that one take Klonaz Es Tab after a doctor prescribes it. Tell your doctor about the history of past illnesses and your medications. The dose of Klonaz Es Tab should be carefully monitored, especially in older patients and people with liver and kidney disorders. The dose should also be monitored because it can cause dependency and potential habit-forming.

Mode of Action of Klonaz Es Tablets
How Does It Work?
Klonaz Es Tab is a combination medicine that contains clonazepam and escitalopram. This medicine increases serotonin levels directly which improves the mood and relieves the user’s symptoms.
Serotonin (a hormone) controls various behavioural processes such as mood, memory, fear, appetite, anger, stress response, sexuality, etc. In addition, this medicine acts by preventing the re-uptake of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) by the nerve cells, thereby increasing its concentration. This process results in an increased effect of serotonin in the central nervous system (CNS).
Clonazepam acts dually by acting as a GABA-A receptor agonist and increasing serotonin synthesis. GABA stands for Gamma Amino Butyric Acid, and it is an inhibitory neurotransmitter. By binding to the GABA-A receptor, it enhances the inhibitory effects of GABA (Gamma Amino Butyric Acid), resulting in anti-anxiety, sedative and muscle relaxant properties....
