Can you die from Ativan? I am sure you could die from any benzodiazepine drug.

But as for ativan studies have shown a rat injected within limits of 1000-1700mg

rarely end in fatality. So I am thinking for a 140-260lb human, as much ativan as you can get your hands on probably still isnt enough to die from. But just to be safe do not try and eat as much as you can, because that just, is not smart.

If you stop taking your medicine which is clonazepam what may you experience?

Do not stop using clonazepam or change your dose without first talking to your doctor, even if you feel better. You may have increased seizures if you stop using the medicine suddenly. You will need to use less and less (tapering) before you stop the medication completely. Your doctor may also prescribe another seizure medication for you to start while you are stopping clonazepam.

Can you substitute clonipin safely for ativan while stopping 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.


How long after taking Suboxone can you take clonazepam?

Clonazepam is not an opiate, so you can take it even if you're already on Suboxone. A few years ago I was prescribed clonazepam, on top of my regular dose of Suboxone. Just don't take more than a normal dose of either drug: as they are both depressants, there is a risk of overdose if you take too much.
