Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine used for anxiety, panic disorder, seizures, and muscle spasms. It enhances the effect of GABA at the GABA-A receptor, producing calming, muscle-relaxant, and anticonvulsant effects. Due to its risk of dependence, it is recommended only for limited duration under strict medical supervision.
