Best Answer

Ativan and Klonopin are both benzodiazepine tranquilizers. They work in generally the same ways, and there is no good reason for combining them. Based on the categories you checked, it is possible that your anxiety could be related to the Adderall. Perhaps you should consider speaking with a physician who specializes in psychopharmacology. Prescribing a drug to counteract the effects of another drug is perhaps not the best way to go about dealing with the problem.

Yes, you can, but they are going to amplify the effects of one another. Can cause increased drowsiness, sedation, anxiolysis, euphoria, dizziness, forgetfulness, cognitive impairment, sleepiness, etc. Be careful and take as directed by your doctor. Sometimes combining two benzos yields better results than either of the two alone, but a doctor should make that decision and be cautious of the habit-forming nature of the medications as benzo tolerance builds rapidly and it is both VERY unpleasant and physically dangerous to go through benzodiazepine withdrawal.

Which is stronger Ativan or Klonopin?

Both belong to class the class of "super-potent" benzodiazepines. Technically, Klonopin is more potent than Ativan (0.25mg-0.5mg klonopin = 1mg ativan), but if you are wondering which produces more euphoria, most would agree Ativan beats Klonopin. My psychiatrist recently swapped me from klonopin to ativan for my social anxiety, and I find ativan works faster and produces a much more calming effect than the klonopin did.
