Clobazam, sold under the brand names Frisium, Onfi and others, is a benzodiazepine class medication that was patented in 1968. [3] Clobazam was first synthesized in 1966 and first published in 1969. Clobazam was originally marketed as an anxioselective anxiolytic since 1970, [4][5] and an anticonvulsant since 1984. [6]
A 2016 review found it was not useful in generalized anxiety disorder at 2.5, 5, and 10 mg doses (15 and 20 mg doses were not tested). [31] A 2019 meta-analysis found that vortioxetine did not produce statistically significant results over placebo in the symptoms, quality of life, and remission rates of generalized anxiety disorder, but it was ...
It has an elimination half-life of 19–60 hours. [10] Peak blood concentrations of 6.5–13.5 ng/mL were usually reached within 1–2 hours following a single 2 mg oral dose of micronized clonazepam in healthy adults. In some individuals, however, peak blood concentrations were reached at 4–8 hours. [131]

Mirtazapine is a tetracyclic piperazinoazepine; mianserin was developed by the same team of organic chemists and mirtazapine differs from it via addition of a nitrogen atom in one of the rings. [117]: 429 [118][119] It is a racemic mixture of enantiomers. The (S)- (+)-enantiomer is known as esmirtazapine.
In one study D 2 receptor occupancy was 60% with low-dose olanzapine (5 mg/day) and occupancy with high dose at 83% (20 mg/day). [93] In the usual clinical dose range of 10–20 mg/day, D 2 receptor occupancy varied from 71% to 80%. [94] Olanzapine occupancy at 5-HT 2A receptor are high at all doses (5 mg to 20 mg). It is reported that 5 mg ...
