Drug Interactions between clonazepam and zuranolone

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of zuranolone. When administered with a low-fat meal (e.g., 400 to 500 calories, 25% fat), zuranolone peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 3.5- and 1.8-fold, respectively, compared to administration under fasted conditions. Zuranolone was administered with food in the premarketing study population. The efficacy of zuranolone when administered in the fasted state is unknown.

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant use of zuranolone with central nervous system (CNS) depressants, including alcohol, may potentiate adverse effects such as somnolence, confusion, dizziness, and gait disturbance.

MANAGEMENT: Zuranolone must be administered with fat-containing food (e.g., 400 to 1,000 calories, 25% to 50% fat) according to the manufacturer. Patients should also be advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol and to avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until at least 12 hours after administration of zuranolone.

Using clonazePAM together with ethanol can increase nervous system side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. Some people may also experience impairment in thinking and judgment. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with clonazePAM. Do not use more than the recommended dose of clonazePAM, and avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medication affects you. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medication without first talking to your doctor.
