Ativan is constantly in your system if taken on a daily basis, it will show up as a benzodiazepine. However if a doctor prescribes this for you then whoever you are getting the drug test from can not hold it against you. I would tell the drug tester I was taking it, how much of it I was taking, and if need be bring in the pill bottle with your name and the prescription number and everything on it as proof that it is a legal use of the drug. I took Xanax (same family as Ativan) for a while, 0.5 mg as needed, and it came up on a drug test. It was not held against me because my psych doctor prescribed it.
