Introduction
Benzodiazepine; anticonvulsant, sedative, and anxiolytic.1 b
Uses for Clonazepam
Seizure Disorders
Prophylactic management of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and akinetic and myoclonic seizures.1 b d
Management of absence seizures in patients unresponsive to succinimides.1 b d
Some evidence of success in the management of refractory seizures† [off-label], including partial seizures with complex symptomatology and other partial seizures and some cases of infantile spasms† [off-label].b d
Useful in some patients with tonic-clonic seizures† [off-label].b d
Panic Disorder
Treatment of panic disorder with or without agoraphobia.1 3
Catatonia

Clonazepam Dosage and Administration
General
-
Adjust dosage carefully and slowly according to individual requirements and response.b
-
Withdraw clonazepam slowly; avoid abrupt discontinuance, especially during long-term, high-dose therapy, to avoid precipitating seizures, status epilepticus, or withdrawal symptoms.b During withdrawal of clonazepam in patients with seizure disorders, simultaneous substitution of another anticonvulsant may be indicated.b
Administration
Oral Administration
Administer orally as conventional or orally disintegrating tablets.a
Administer in 3 equally divided doses for the treatment of seizure disorders; if doses are not equally divided, give the largest dose at bedtime.1 b
Administer in 2 equally divided doses for the management of panic disorder; alternatively, administer the entire dosage at bedtime to reduce the inconvenience of somnolence.1 b
Conventional Tablets
Swallow tablet whole with water.a
Orally Disintegrating Tablets
Just prior to administration, remove blister from aluminum pouch; with dry hands, peel open blister package, place orally disintegrating tablet in mouth to dissolve, and swallow with or without water.a
Dosage
Pediatric Patients
Seizure Disorders
Oral
Infants and children <10 years of age or weighing <30 kg: Initially, 0.01–0.03 mg/kg daily; initial dosage should not exceed 0.05 mg/kg daily given in 2 or 3 divided doses.1
Increase dosage by no more than 0.5 mg every third day until seizure control is achieved with minimal adverse effects.1 Maintenance dosage of 0.1–0.2 mg/kg daily.1
Children ≥10 years of age or weighing ≥30 kg: Initial dosage should not exceed 1.5 mg daily given in 3 divided doses.1 e
Increase dosage in increments of 0.5–1 mg every third day (up to a maximum dosage of 20 mg daily) until seizure control is achieved with minimal adverse effects.1 e
Adults
Seizure Disorders
Oral
Initial dosage should not exceed 1.5 mg daily given in 3 divided doses.1 b Increase dosage in increments of 0.5–1 mg every third day (up to a maximum dosage of 20 mg daily) until seizure control is achieved with minimal adverse effects.1 b
Panic Disorder
Oral
Initially, 0.25 mg twice daily.1 After 3 days, increase dosage to usual maintenance dosage of 1 mg daily.1
Some clinicians recommend dosages of 1–2 mg daily.3 Certain patients may benefit from dosages up to 4 mg daily.1 In such cases, increase dosage by 0.125–0.25 mg twice daily every 3 days until panic disorder is controlled with minimal adverse effects.1
Discontinue therapy gradually by decreasing the dosage in increments of 0.125 mg twice daily every 3 days until the drug is completely withdrawn.1

Cautions for Clonazepam
Contraindications
-
Known hypersensitivity to clonazepam or other benzodiazepines.1
-
Clinical or biochemical evidence of substantial hepatic impairment.1
-
Manufacturer states that clonazepam is contraindicated in patients with acute angle-closure glaucoma but may be administered to patients with open-angle glaucoma who are receiving appropriate therapy;1 however, clinical rationale for this contraindication has been questioned.c
Warnings/Precautions
Warnings
Concomitant Use with Opiates
Concomitant use of benzodiazepines, including clonazepam, and opiates may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death.700 701 703 705 706 707 Substantial proportion of fatal opiate overdoses involve concurrent benzodiazepine use.700 701 705 706 707 711
Reserve concomitant use of clonazepam and opiates for patients in whom alternative treatment options are inadequate.700 703 (See Specific Drugs under Interactions.)
CNS Effects
Performance of activities requiring mental alertness and physical coordination may be impaired.1
Concurrent use of other CNS depressants may potentiate CNS depression.1 (See Concomitant Use with Opiates under Cautions and also see (See Specific Drugs under Interactions.)
Withdrawal Effects
Abrupt discontinuance may result in symptoms of withdrawal (similar to barbiturates or alcohol).1 8 Symptoms may be relieved by tapering the dosage.1
General Precautions
Seizure Disorders
May increase the incidence or precipitate the onset of generalized tonic-clonic seizures in patients with multiple types of seizure disorders.1 Consider addition of appropriate anticonvulsants or an increase in their dosages.1
Abrupt withdrawal, particularly in patients receiving long-term, high-dose therapy, may result in status epilepticus.1
Concomitant use with valproic acid may produce absence status.1
Laboratory Testing
Perform blood counts and liver function tests periodically during long-term therapy.1
Hypersalivation
May increase salivation; use with caution in patients who have difficulty tolerating or clearing secretions.1
Respiratory Effects
Possible hypersalivation and respiratory depression in patients with chronic respiratory disease; use with caution in such patients.1 b
Abuse Potential
Psychologic and physical dependence may occur following prolonged use.1
Patients with a history of drug or alcohol dependence or abuse are at risk of habituation or dependence; use only with careful surveillance in such patients.1
Suicide
Use with caution in depressed patients; potential for suicidal tendencies.c Prescribe drug in the smallest feasible quantity.c
Psychiatric Indications
Do not use in patients with depressive neuroses or psychotic reactions in which anxiety is not prominent.c
Specific Populations
Pregnancy
Category D.1
Lactation
Distributed into milk;c discontinue nursing or the drug.1
Pediatric Use
Effects of long-term administration on physical and mental development have not been established.1 b Administer to children with seizure disorders only if potential benefits outweigh possible risks.1 b
Safety and efficacy for treatment of panic disorder not established in children <18 years of age;1 however, clonazepam has been effective in a limited number of adolescents with panic disorder.22
Geriatric Use
Insufficient experience from clinical studies to determine whether patients ≥65 years of age respond differently than younger adults.a Other clinical experience has not identified age-related differences in responses. Potential increased sensitivity (increased risk of oversedation and confusion) to sedatives.a
Select dosage carefully, generally initiating therapy at low dosage; observe closely.a Consider the increased incidence of hepatic and renal impairment, decreased cardiac function, and concomitant disease and drug therapy in the geriatric population.a May be useful to assess hepatic and/or renal function when selecting dosage.a
Hepatic Impairment
Prolonged elimination.1 c Contraindicated in patients with clinical or biochemical evidence of substantial liver disease.1
Renal Impairment
Elimination of metabolites may be decreased; use with caution.1
Common Adverse Effects
Sedation/drowsiness, ataxia/hypotonia, behavioral disturbances (principally in children) including aggressiveness, irritability, agitation, hyperkinesis.b
Drug Interactions
Metabolized by CYP enzymes, including CYP3A.1
Drugs Affecting or Affected by Hepatic Microsomal Enzymes
Potential pharmacokinetic interaction (altered plasma concentrations of clonazepam) with CYP inducers or inhibitors.1
No evidence that clonazepam induces metabolism of other drugs.a

Actions
-
Exact mechanism of anticonvulsant, sedative, and antipanic effects is unknown;1 however, mechanism appears to be related to the drug’s ability to enhance the activity of GABA, the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS.1 b
Advice to Patients
-
Risk of potentially fatal additive effects (e.g., profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma) if used concomitantly with opiates either therapeutically or illicitly.700 703 Avoid concomitant use of opiate antitussives;700 704 also avoid concomitant use of opiate analgesics unless use is supervised by clinician.700 703
-
Importance of taking only as prescribed; do not increase dosage or duration of therapy unless otherwise instructed by a clinician.1
-
Importance of not abruptly discontinuing therapy; consult clinician about discontinuing use.1
-
Potential for psychologic or physiologic dependence.1
-
Importance of informing clinicians of existing or contemplated concomitant therapy, including prescription and OTC drugs, and concomitant illnesses, particularly depression.1
-
Importance of avoiding alcohol-containing beverages or products.1
-
Potential for drug to impair mental alertness or physical coordination; avoid driving or operating machinery until effects on individual are known.1
-
Importance of informing clinicians of any behavioral or mental changes, memory impairment, tolerance, or dependence/withdrawal symptoms.c
