Answer:It is perfectly fine to take Lexapro and Ativan. It is a very common combination of medications for people to take. Ativan is approved for anxiety and for anxiety associated with depression. Only Ativan and Xanax are specifically indicated for use with a depressive disorder. Ativan is also commonly used for 2-6 weeks as Lexapro is started because Ativan can reduce the initial side effects Lexapro can cause and Ativan will provide immediate relief of anxiety.
Only to show that Lexapro and Ativan are in your system along with w/e else is in there. However if your prescribed these drugs you'll be fine, and if you took other benzodiazepines other than ativan, and your prescribed ativan, you'll be fine. Most tests wont look for lexapro because its hardly used recreationally but the benzo's will definitly by looked for.
Yes. It is perfectly safe to take both Paxil (Paroxitine) and Ativan (Lorezapam) at the same time. i was prescribed both these meds for my anxiety and depression and have been taking them for 6 months.. they work great for GAD :)
Yes
Benzodiazepines, like Valium, Ativan or Klonopin etc. It should be done by an expert psychotherapist (The Dosages). See related link for more info!
Celexa is very similar to Lexapro one is Citalopram and the other Escitalopram. lexapro is newer and supposed to have fewer side effects but Celexa is helpful and similar to Lexapro.
Ativan is a tranquilizer, and so are sleeping pills. I doubt that you should take them at the same time. Aks your doctor to be sure.
No you can't... both lexapro and ecstasy are dealing with the same material in your brain - seratonin. ecstasy brings it levels very high, while lexapro keeps it in a controlled level, so the ecstasy just won't work. not taking lexapro that day is meaningless, as the drug is not effective the same day, it keeps a certain level in your blood (which is why it takes 2 weeks after starting taking lexapro to really feel the effects)
Check with a doctor or pharmacist.
A person should not mix Ativan and Xanax. This is because the two drugs work with the body in the same way and could cause an overdose.
Xanax can be prescribed by your doctor alongside lexapro and taking them at the same time is okay. I am on Lexapro and take Xanex for occasional bouts of anxiety or panic attacks. However, weening yourself off Lexapro with Xanex is probably not the best idea. If you are having withdrawal from Lexapro you should probably go back on it.
Yes, you can take suboxone and ativan together. Suboxone does not block the effects of ativan. However, taking too much ativan with suboxone, could cause respiratory failure. So, to be safe, stick to the prescribed dosages of both medications.
