Frequently asked questions
- What does Tranxene Sd treat?
- Tranxene Sd (Clorazepate Dipotassium) may be used to treat alcohol withdrawal delirium, anxiety disorders, partial epilepsies, based on NIH RxClass drug-classification data (conditions a drug may treat — not a verbatim copy of the FDA-approved label). This is general reference, not medical advice.
- How does Tranxene Sd work?
- Tranxene Sd is a benzodiazepine. Benzodiazepines boost the brain's main calming chemical, GABA, by binding to the GABA-A receptor and making its chloride channel open more often. This quiets nerve activity, producing sedation, reduced anxiety, muscle relaxation, and protection against seizures.

- pharmaranks is an independent ratings site, not a pharmacy — we don't issue coupons or sell Tranxene Sd. To pay less, ask your prescriber or pharmacist whether a generic equivalent exists, check the manufacturer's copay/savings card and patient-assistance program, and compare a pharmacy discount card against your insurance copay. Prices vary by pharmacy, insurance, and location, so always confirm at the counter. This is general reference, not medical or financial advice.

What people report to the FDA about CLORAZEPATE DIPOTASSIUM
The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) collects reports from patients and clinicians. It holds 2,186 reports naming CLORAZEPATE DIPOTASSIUM — the active ingredient in Tranxene Sd, and the FDA flagged 83% of those reports as serious. The effects reported most often — leaving out reports about overdose, misuse or the condition being treated, which dominate the raw list for common medicines:
- somnolence148 reports
- nausea146 reports
- diarrhoea108 reports
- vomiting102 reports
- fall100 reports
- fatigue100 reports
- dizziness99 reports
- anxiety95 reports
Read these as a signal, not a rate. A report does not mean CLORAZEPATE DIPOTASSIUM caused the effect — anyone can file one, and many describe people taking several medicines for several conditions. Crucially there is no denominator: FAERS does not record how many people took the drug, so these counts cannot be turned into “X% of patients” — a bigger number often just means a more widely used or more talked-about drug. Duplicates exist, and publicity drives reporting. For what is actually established, read the FDA label.
