How Profesam Tablet ER works

Profesam-ER Tablet is a combination of two medicines, paroxetine and clonazepam, which have mood-enhancing and anxiety-lowering effects. Paroxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), which increases the levels of serotonin, a chemical messenger that improves mood. Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine (BZD) that increases the action of GABA, a chemical messenger that suppresses the abnormal activity of the nerve cells in the brain.

Quick tips

  • Take Profesam-ER Tablet with a snack or just after eating breakfast, as this will help to reduce the likelihood of you feeling sick as a side effect.
  • It can take a week or two after starting this treatment before the effect begins to build up, and 4-6 weeks before you feel the full benefit. Do not stop taking it after a week or two if you feel it is not helping.
  • Avoid taking antacids 2 hours before or after taking Profesam-ER Tablet, as they make it harder for your body to absorb the medicine.
  • Inform your doctor immediately if you have thoughts about harming yourself or ending your life.
  • If you have diabetes, you will be asked to monitor your blood glucose level regularly, as this medicine may affect the levels of sugar in your blood.
  • Try to keep your regular appointments with your doctor. This is so your doctor can check on your progress.
