Frequently asked questions
Is Clonotril 0.5 a sleeping pill?
No. Clonazepam is prescribed for epilepsy, panic disorder and muscle spasms. It does make you drowsy, but it should not be used simply as a sleeping tablet because it is habit-forming.
Can I take Lonazep 0.5 with alcohol?
No. Alcohol with clonazepam causes heavy sedation and can slow your breathing to a dangerous level. Avoid alcohol completely while you take it.
Is Clonotril 0.5 addictive?
Clonazepam can cause dependence, particularly if taken for more than a few weeks. That is why doctors prescribe the lowest dose for the shortest time and taper it slowly when stopping.
Lonazep 0.5 vs Lonazep MD 0.5 – what is the difference?
Both contain 0.5 mg clonazepam. The MD (mouth-dissolving) tablet melts on the tongue without water, which is handy during a panic attack or for people who cannot swallow tablets. The effect is the same.
