If you have 10mg Valium for a dental appointment but you need 15mg can you add 1mg Ativan and get the same basic effect?

Most benzodiazepine equivalency charts show 10mg Valium = 1mg Ativan so it should work, HOWEVER, be cautious when subsitituting or combining benzos as effects are VERY relative to each person. Paradoxical reactions can occur in one benzo and not another. For example, My cousin can't take Valium- it makes her hyper and irritable, but 0.5mg Ativan knocks her out.

Why is Valium often perceived by doctors in a more negative manner than the more potentfaster-acting and potentially more habit-forming benzos Xanax Klonopin Ativan etc?
I wouldn't say that Xanax, Klonopin, or Ativan are more habit-forming than Valium. Valium is just as addictive and potent as those three, if not more potent and addictive. I have been prescribed all 4 at some time or another to help with my sleep disorder, and I would say that the Valium lasted longer and had a greater sedating effect than the other 3, even when comparing a relatively small dosage of Valium to a higher dosage of any of the other 3.

Is Ativan safe for dogs?
No they can not have any drugs Miyabi Armstrong Fraser Acutally, Valium is commonly used on dogs in vet offices. Ativan is in the same class of drugs (although used within a fairly different scope than Valium). I don't know if it can be used on dogs. Best to ask a veterinarian!! Yes, Ativan can be given to dogs but needs to be given under a vets supervision.
