Take control of your epilepsy and seizures. Seizure management has never been easier.
TAKE CONTROL TODAYIf you visit PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), a service of the National Library of Medicine, you can read summaries of studies that have tested the effectiveness of clonazepam, as well as other reports about this medication.
Here is a link to one article related to clonazepam:
Mikkelsen B, Birket-Smith E, Bradt S, et al. Clonazepam in the treatment of epilepsy. A controlled clinical trial in simple absences, bilateral massive epileptic myoclonus, and atonic seizures. Arch Neurol. 1976;33(5):322-325. PMID: 817696
This small study reported very good results when clonazepam (Klonopin) was used as add-on therapy. Most patients experienced side effects, but they were usually tolerable.
