Yes, they are both closely related and one will flag the other for an ordinary benzodiazapine drug test.
You can give Diazepam (Valium) next day after you give Lorazepam (Ativan). Lorazepam is short acting and diazepam is long acting.
Valium (Diazepam) and Ativan (Lorazepam) are both benzodiazepine drugs. They are similar, but not the same.
clonazepam, diazepam, lorazepam

Both morphine and diazepam (Valium) have sedative properties, so yes, it is very possible to overdose on the combination. It is unsafe to take either morphine or diazepam except by prescription from a qualified doctor, and you should be sure that your doctor knows about all medications you are taking.
Valium's generic name is Diazepam, and it can only be prescribed by its generic name within the U.K. on N.H.S. prescriptions. If a sporting event were conducting a 'Doping Screen' for the use of Benzodiazepines, BOTH Lorazepam and Diazepam (Valium) could be traced, as chemically, they are 'cousins.'

Probably not
No, Valium and Ativan are different medications with different active ingredients. Valium is a trade name (brand name) for the drug "diazepam" and Ativan is a trade name for the drug "lorazepam." However, both diazepam (Valium) and lorazepam (Ativan) belong to the same class of sedative hypnotic prescription medications known as benzodiazepines. Accordingly, diazepam and lorazepam have similar chemical/molecular structures and share many of the same therapeutic properties.

The family of antianxiety drugs known as benzodiazepines includes alprazolam (Xanax), chlordiazepoxide (Librium), diazepam (Valium), and lorazepam (Ativan).
Because Klonopin (generic name clonazepam) has a much higher halflife than Ativan (generic name lorazepam) at 18-50hrs compared to 9-16hrs for lorazepam, there should be little risk. If you are taking clonazepam just to get off of lorazepam, you cannot simply stop the clonazepam once you are off the lorazepam. Both drugs are benzodiazepines and while they can be fairly interchangable, your body will still have tolerance to them, and suddenly stopping high doses of them will result in restlessness, tremors, and potentially seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is not a pleasant experience, you should consult your doctor about substituting the lorazepam with something like clonazepam or diazepam and have a schedule for tapering down the dosage. SHORT ANSWER: Yes, but then you will have to continue taking the clonazepam instead.
