Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:
Onfi (clobazam) is a benzodiazapine for use as an add-on treatment for seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) in patients 2 years of age or older.
-Elevated blood pressure increases CBF and risk of ICH. -Increased glycolysis leading to hypoglycemia which exacerbates seizure induced brain injury. -Excitatory amino acids (increased release) resulting in excitotoxic brain injury. Most of these can be prevented with good intensive care and control of the seizures.
