Is It Safe To Take Phenobarbital And Clobazam While On Insulin?

I am a juvenile diabetic who has had diabetes for over 30 years. My sugars are controlled fairly well with 50/50 insulin and another long-acting insulin at night (twice a day). I am also hypothyroid and am taking seizure prophylaxis with phenobarbital and clobazam. Please advise me.

Hello,

You can continue clobazam and phenobarbital while on insulin. Insulin will not affect the efficacy or interact with seizure medicines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
