About
CLONIL 25MG TAB contains Clonazepam, a benzodiazepine medication primarily used as an anticonvulsant and anxiolytic. It works by enhancing the activity of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. By increasing GABA's effects, Clonazepam helps to calm excessive electrical activity in the brain, thereby reducing anxiety, preventing seizures, and relaxing muscles. It is particularly effective in managing panic disorder, certain seizure types, and acute anxiety states. Due to its potential for dependence and withdrawal symptoms, it is typically prescribed for short-term use or with careful monitoring for chronic conditions. Its rapid onset of action makes it useful for acute symptom control.
