Indikasi Terapi:

Clonazepam is useful alone or as an adjunct in the treatment of the Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (petit mal variant), akinetic, and myoclonic seizures. In patients with absence seizures (petit mal) who have failed to respond to succinimides, clonazepam may be useful. Some loss of effect may occur during the course of clonazepam treatment (see PRECAUTIONS : Loss of Effect ). Clonazepam is indicated for the treatment of panic disorder, with or without agoraphobia, as defined in DSM-V. Panic disorder is characterized by the occurrence of unexpected panic attacks and associated concern about having additional attacks, worry about the implications or consequences of the attacks, and/or a significant change in behavior related to the attacks. The efficacy of clonazepam was established in two 6- to 9-week trials in panic disorder patients whose diagnoses corresponded to the DSM-IIIR category of panic disorder (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY: Clinical Trials).

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACODYNAMICS :
The precise mechanism by which clonazepam exerts its antiseizure and
antipanic effects is unknown,
although it is believed to be related to its ability to enhance the
activity of gamma aminobutyric acid
(GABA), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous
system.
PHARMACOKINETICS :
Clonazepam is rapidly and completely absorbed after oral
administration. The absolute bioavailability
of clonazepam is about 90%. Maximum plasma concentrations of
clonazepam are reached within 1 to 4
hours after oral administration. Clonazepam is approximately 85% bound
to plasma proteins.
Clonazepam is highly metabolized, with less than 2% unchanged
clonazepam being excreted in the urine.
Biotransformation occurs mainly by reductio
