PubMed indexes 8 records that name Clonazepam and Melatonin together, either in the title or in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context. Each one is listed below with its study design and, where the abstract states one, the authors’ own conclusion, quoted and linked. This page reports that literature. It does not tell you whether to combine them.
Every statement below is attributed to a named, dated, linked source.
This page lists published research relevant to Clonazepam and Melatonin. It deliberately does not state whether the combination is safe, whether it interacts, in which direction, at what dose, or how far apart to take them.
Strongest relevance first: papers naming both substances in the title, then human trials and systematic reviews.
“Four weeks of clonazepam, but not PR melatonin, improved RWA. RBD symptom improvement tended to be better after clonazepam than PR melatonin in exchange for increased depressive symptoms and daytime sleepiness.”
Names both Clonazepam and Melatonin in its title.
“Trazodone 50 mg/day, clonazepam 1 mg/day, and melatonin 3 mg/day were all tolerable and effective in improving sleep quality in patients with PD.”
Names both Clonazepam and Melatonin in its title.
“The number of REM sleep epochs remained lower in patients treated with clonazepam (p=0.0001). The data suggest high treatment efficacy of melatonin in the treatment of sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease without dementia.”
Names both Clonazepam and Melatonin in its title.
“These results suggest that the administration of MLT or CLO impacts (positively) on sleep parameters of iRBD patients. However, there is a need to better stratify patients, in order to treat them in a targeted manner, depending on the patient's individual sleep architecture and expected differential effects of these agents.”
Names both Clonazepam and Melatonin in its title.
“Both drugs were found to be safe, with no major adverse effects in patients with BMS. Melatonin may be regarded as an alternative treatment for patients with BMS, though further studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness.”
Names both Clonazepam and Melatonin in its title.
“Recent studies indicate that PK 11195 blocks BZ-induced inhibition of the adenylyl cyclase-cyclic AMP pathway in the striatum. Since cyclic AMP has been implicated in the rotational behaviour of 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned animals, it is possible that the antidopaminergic action of clonazepam and melatonin also involves suppression of this second messenger.”
Names both Clonazepam and Melatonin in its title.
“Bicuculline, a GABAA receptor antagonist, was also found to reduce the inhibitory effect of melatonin on the induced rotational response (P < .01). These results indicate that the antidopaminergic effect of clonazepam and melatonin is mediated predominantly by central-type benzodiazepine receptors in the central nervous system, via a GABAergic mechanism.”
Names both Clonazepam and Melatonin in its title.
“RO 5-4864, a specific ligand for peripheral benzodiazepine binding sites was the most potent of the drugs tested in displacing [3H]PK 11195, whereas clonazepam and RO 15-1788 were weak inhibitors of [3H]PK 11195 binding to pineal membranes. Overall, these results demonstrate, for the first time, the coexistence of peripheral and central benzodiazepine binding sites in the human pineal gland.”
Names Clonazepam and Melatonin together in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context.
Search-based evidence indexes have real limits, and it is worth being explicit about them:
NutriStack is a free iPhone app for organising a supplement routine: what you take, when, and what the published record says about it. Its exploratory interaction checker covers Clonazepam, Melatonin, and several hundred other substances.
The checker is a research and organisation tool, not a clinical decision aid, and its per-pair assessments are excluded from search until they pass claim-level review.
NutriStack is an informational and organizational tool, not a medical service, and not a substitute for professional advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping, or changing any supplement or medication.
