Consumer:Before receiving flumazenil, let your doctor know if you have been treated with clonazePAM. The use of flumazenil in patients who have been on long-term treatment with clonazePAM or similar medications can provoke seizures and convulsions. You may need a dosage adjustment or close monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications, or you may not be able to use flumazenil at all. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:GENERALLY AVOID: The administration of flumazenil can result in convulsions in patients who have been receiving long-term treatment with benzodiazepines for epilepsy or sedation or who have recently received repeated doses of parenteral benzodiazepines. The mechanism is abrupt reversal of the benzodiazepine's anticonvulsive effects. In addition, withdrawal seizures may occur in patients who are physically dependent on benzodiazepines.
MANAGEMENT: The use of flumazenil is not recommended in patients with epilepsy who have been receiving long-term treatment with benzodiazepines. In addition, flumazenil is contraindicated in patients who have received a benzodiazepine to control potentially life-threatening conditions such as status epilepticus or increased intracranial pressure. Extreme caution, dose individualization, and close monitoring is recommended for other patients. Clinicians should be prepared to manage convulsions. Most seizures have been successfully managed with benzodiazepines, phenytoin, or barbiturates.
