I just started Clobazam, 5mg/day, 10 days ago. I've been noticing a
twitching in my foot for the last few days. Has anyone noticed this type of
side effect from it? I remember Topamax doing something similar in my
eyelid.
I'm supposed to go up to 10mg but now I'm a bit reluctant.
thanks

I use it 10mg (1 tablet) each AM with Tegretol CR and alone at night.  I
don't remember seeing that on the 'things to watch for', although there
might be more detail under http://efa.org  med. site or at your Pharmacy.
  It's supposed to be taken whole with Milk, Food or Juice, as with most of
the other AEDs.  But I had less effects each time we raised my dose, for
Temporal Lobe szrs., than with the Tegretol, and haven't had a dose change
now since 1996.  G./

i was on clobazam for a while but switched to clonazepam... clobazam was way
too sedatative for me... as for side effects like twitches, i can't recall
any.
