Interaction entre Clobazam et Tizanidine

Prescribe the lowest effective dosage; avoid or minimize concomitant use of CNS depressants and other substances associated with abuse, misuse, and addiction (e.g., opioid analgesics, stimulants); and advise patients on the proper disposal of unused drug.

Risk may be increased with concomitant use of other CNS depressants ( 5.4 , 5.5 )

Potentiation of Sedation from Concomitant Use with Central Nervous System Depressants Since SYMPAZAN ® has a central nervous system (CNS) depressant effect, patients or their caregivers should be cautioned against simultaneous use with other CNS depressant drugs or alcohol, and cautioned that the effects of other CNS depressant drugs or alcohol may be potentiated…

Prescribers should monitor patients for somnolence and sedation, particularly with concomitant use of other central nervous system depressants.

CNS Depressants and Alcohol Concomitant use of SYMPAZAN ® with other CNS depressants may increase the risk of sedation and somnolence [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ].

Sedation: Zanaflex may interfere with everyday activities; sedative effects of Zanaflex, alcohol, and other central nervous system (CNS) depressants are additive ( 5.3 , 7.4 )

The CNS depressant effects of Zanaflex with alcohol and other CNS depressants (e.g., benzodiazepines, opioids, tricyclic antidepressants) may be additive [see Drug Interactions ( 7.4 )] .

Monitor patients who take Zanaflex with another CNS depressant for symptoms of excess sedation.

Alcohol and Other CNS Depressants Alcohol increases the exposure of tizanidine after administration of Zanaflex.

Concomitant use of Zanaflex with CNS depressants (e.g., alcohol, benzodiazepines, opioids, tricyclic antidepressants) may cause additive CNS depressant effects, including sedation.
