What is the difference between escitalopram & clonazepam?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very different: Escitalopram is an SSRI antidepressant which can be used for depression, anxiety & other conditions. Clonazapam is a benzodiazepine used for anxiety. There is concern about building up tolerance on benzodiazapines.
