Revotril 0.5mg Tablet

Revotril 0.5mg Tablet, made by Martin Dow Pharmaceuticals Ltd, is a benzodiazepine. Its active ingredient is Clonazepam 0.5mg, and it is used for epilepsy (some seizure types) and panic disorder. Pack size: 5×10 tablets.

Uses of Revotril 0.5mg Tablet

Revotril 0.5mg Tablet is used to treat several types of epilepsy, including absence seizures, myoclonic seizures and some tonic-clonic seizures, often alongside other epilepsy medicines. It is also prescribed for panic disorder in some countries. Because the body can become used to it, it is prescribed with care and should be reviewed regularly by your doctor.

How Revotril 0.5mg Tablet works

Clonazepam strengthens the effect of GABA, the brain’s main calming messenger. This quietens the excessive electrical activity in the brain that can lead to seizures, and it also eases the intense anxiety and physical symptoms of a panic attack.

Possible side effects

Drowsiness is the most common complaint with Revotril 0.5mg Tablet. Other side effects can include:

• Sleepiness
• Dizziness
• Unsteadiness or poor coordination
• Tiredness or muscle weakness
• Memory problems
• Increased saliva, especially in children

Get urgent help for slow or shallow breathing, extreme drowsiness or confusion, or thoughts of harming yourself.

Precautions and warnings

• Clonazepam is a controlled medicine that can cause dependence; take it exactly as prescribed and never share it.
• Do not stop it suddenly, as this can cause withdrawal symptoms and, in epilepsy, may trigger seizures; your doctor will reduce it gradually.
• Avoid alcohol, opioid painkillers and other sedating medicines while taking it.
• Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how it affects you, and tell your doctor if you have breathing, liver or kidney problems.
• Discuss pregnancy plans and breastfeeding with your doctor before starting or stopping treatment.

Storage

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original pack until use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
