Melzap is clonazepam used for short term control of anxiety, it does have withdrawal. But for better treatment of anxiety you need to consult a psychiatrist for ssri or snri group of medications as needed. Good luck.

Dear Sunil, It may not be a withdrawal of melzap after just 5 days. Did you have this kind of restless feeling before taking melzap? If so, you need to consult your doctor again to diagnose and treat your anxiety issues. It might be due to drug side effect, your medical issues and also psycho-social issues. Let it be diagnosed properly.
