Clonazepam medication
Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine used to control certain types of seizures in the treatment of epilepsy and for the treatment of panic disorders.
Q. I have recently begun the process of tapering from the
prescription
medication clonazapam.
Has any of your research has addressed the use of supplements to facilitate
withdrawal from anti-depressant and anti-anxiety medications?
A. It may be possible to do so by using certain supplements such as
5-HTP and others, but it is a case by case basis and few general statements can
be made except to reduce the medication dosages slowly and gradually increase
the supplement dosages.
Would it be safe to take DMG supplement or DMAE while taking
low dose clonazepam 0.5mg once per day for panic disorder?
It is not easy to predict a supplement / medication interaction
since much depends on the person taking them and the dosage used. If you doctor
approves you can begin with a quarter or half a tablet of the DMG pill.
