Ativan can help with things like sleep and anxiety, but is also an addictive drug. Only the doctor of the 87 year old can decide if it is safe for that person. The doctor should know the patients medical history and current health issues, if any.
The safety of the drug Ativan (Lorazepam) on the elderly depends on what other medications your mother is taking. Some medications can cause negative reactions when taken at the same time with ativan. The best way is to consult a doctor or pharmacist who will take a look at the other medications to determine suitability. If she is not taking any other medications, the risks are lowered.
