What is Clonazepam Used for?

Clonazepam 2 mg has a wide variety of uses including anxiety, insomnia, some forms of epilepsy, and akathisia (restless legs syndrome). People use clonazepam for anxiety disorders, and this is the most common use for this medication. There are different types of anxiety which we will go into more detail about now. Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) is characterised by the following symptoms:

• Not being able to stop worrying about many different things

• Feeling like something awful is going to happen

• Difficulty concentrating

• Insomnia

• Dizziness

Social anxiety is a chronic mental health condition which manifests as an intense and enduring phobia of social situations. This can be particularly debilitating as it can impact many parts of your life, including socialising with friends and being part of a team at work. It can even affect people to the extent that they are afraid to be around people that they don't know, for example at a supermarket or on public transport. People also use clonazepam for sleep problems such as insomnia.

There are different types of insomnia including sleep-onset insomnia and sleep-maintenance insomnia. Sleep-onset insomnia means you have difficulty drifting off to sleep and sleep-maintenance insomnia is characterised by the inability to stay asleep throughout the night or waking up too early. Although it is licenced and you can use clonazepam for the treatment of seizures, all types of epilepsy should be managed by a specialist neurologist.
