A member asked:
Does rivotril 0.5 mg help in a case where someone has ocd?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clonazepam: Clonazepam (Rivotril) is a benzodiazepine which has FDA indications for: Epilepsy & other seizures as well as panic disorder. Each physician prescribes differently. I don't tend to use benzodiazepines for OCD. A provider might wish to use if off -label for OCD - but it would not be a first line medication choice for me.
