Patients use Clorazepate to treat tension, insomnia due to anxiety, withdrawal symptoms, and seizures. This medication belongs to a class of drugs called benzodiazepines that act on the cerebrum and nerves (focal sensory system) to create a sedating effect. It works by boosting the impacts of a specific chemical in the body (GABA). Go through Medication Guide provided by your doctor before you begin taking clorazepate and each time you get a refill.
