What Do Dizziness And Anxiety While On Clonazepam Indicate?

default
Posted on Tue, 7 Mar 2017
Question: I am on clonazepam and just started using an artificial sunlamp (white light) for 3 days, and last evening I went into a cold sweat, dizziness and had vision problems (perhaps anxiety attack). I rested for about 1/2 hour and then felt normal. Is there a reaction between the clonazepam and the artificial white light?

Brief Answer:
THere is no known intercation between artificial white light and clonazepam

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have reviewed your information fully. There is no known reaction between clonazepam and artificial white light. That might have been more of an anxiety attack than something else. Am happy you are perfectly fine now; which is more suggestive of the experience being an anxiety attack.

For now, nothing specific needs to be done. I encourage you to monitor only and keep a record of all happenings for future evaluations and more guidance from us.
