Theoretically you can and be fine, however it is not a good idea. Ativan is a short/intermediate acting benzodiazepine while Klonopin is an extremely long acting benzodiazepine. Mixing them together will increase both the desired and side effects of each chemical. The risk of overdosing is greatly increased as well as the length of intoxication with these drugs. If you are planning on mixing the two for medical reasons, check with your doctor to make sure your body will be able to process the medications safely. If you are planning on mixing the two for recreational purposes, start with extremely low doses of each instead of mixing a bunch of them together. Something to keep in mind is that this specific combination of benzodiazepines will most likely not produce euphoria (which is generally the reason why people use benzodiazepines recreationally) but cause heavy sedation and make you fall asleep before the desired effects even occur.

∙ 15y agoThey are both benzodiazepines and act on the same receptors in the brain. There are no serious risks to taking them together, but they will enhance the effects of each other... increased sedation mainly. They are also both addictive so be careful. Best not to take them together, but if you are just asking if it will cause serious, life-threatening problems to take them together, then the answer is no... == == THE PILL BOOK SAYS NO.!!!

Is it safe to mix ambien cr 12 5mg ativan and Klonopin How much is too much?
I asked my doc the same question today. I'm NOT sure about klonopin, I don't take that drug. My doctor said that taking ambien (zolpidem) together with ativan (lorazepam) is safe, since it functions on different receptors in the brain. So there shouldn't be a synnergic effect.

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.
