Valproate - Clonazepam interaction?!

Posted by Ben on November 27, 2011, at 23:49:40

I read in a good book that Valproate inhibits the elimination of Clonzapam. Unfortunately there was no source in the book about this info. Did you know that and have you some further info?

These guys may have it 180° backwards.

I found this:

"The results showed that sodium valproate increased the concentration of clonazepam at every time point.
