Z drugs like ambien should not be taken with a benzodiazepine as it can greatly increase sedation which can lead to side effects as dramatic as death due to upper-respitory failure (being unable to breath).
There is really no need to take the two together, if the ambien you are being prescribed isn't getting you to sleep then consult your phsyician about increasing your dosages.

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.
Can you mix Ativan and Benadryl in the same syringe?
Benadryl is incompatible with Haldol, do not mix. Compatibility is unknown between Benadryl and Ativan, do not mix. Ativan is compatible with Haldol, ok to mix. To prepare and serve a B52=Haldol and Ativan in one syringe, Benadryl in another.

There would be no need to mix those doses, you will probably just pass out. Also it depends on the amount of alcohol that you drink too as this is where there could be major problems.

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 :)
Can you mix Haldol and Ativan in the same syringe for injection?
Yes. You can mix haldol and ativan for an IM injection. It's done frequently done in situations of frank psychoses, like in an ER or psychiatric facility and can be referred to as "halivan." The effect is quite potent and the drugs should only be given by medical personnel with the proper credentials in a location where the patient can have proper monitoring.
