Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

You have reactive depression and in this case, there is no need to take lonazep. You can stop it and in case, you feel any sleep disturbance, then you can take it on sos basis. Esc-slo forte contain both escitalopram and clonazepam, so there is no need to take benzodiazepine separately.

Thanks
