Ativan

Become a physician.

Switching from Ativan (lorazepam) to Prozac (fluoxetine) should be done under a healthcare professional's guidance, as they serve different purposes: Ativan is a benzodiazepine used for anxiety, while Prozac is an antidepressant. Abruptly stopping Ativan can lead to withdrawal symptoms, and transitioning to Prozac may require a tapering schedule. Your doctor will ensure a safe and effective plan tailored to your needs. Always consult a healthcare provider before making any medication changes.

Yes

Skelaxin (metaxalone), Ativan (lorazepam), and Percocet (oxycodone/acetaminophen) are safe to use together UNDER MEDICAL SUPERVISION. A combination like this is actually rather common to see.

The combination can lead to increased sedation so until you know how the combination of medications will effect you avoid driving or other hazardous tasks.

As long as these medications are prescribed they are safe to use short or long term.

No. Like most benzodiazepines, Xanax is metabolized by hepatic oxidation and Ativan by conjugation (one of few benzos to break down this way).

For this reason, Ativan (being less "harsh" on the liver), is often preferred in individuals with liver disorders or elderly patients)

yes

When you go to grad school and get prescribed Ativan because you can't sleep and you're stressed, Ativan is the worst possible answer because you won't be able to remember what you studied and you'll get booted out of grad school.

No.

My Doc who is also managing my coumadin prescribed it for lower back pain its ok to take but need to check INR at least weekly to see the effects and adjust coumadin prescription as needed. You should of course check with your own Doc as every patient is different especially when it comes to Coumadin (Warfarin)

No lethal dose has been set by the FDA, although some people require 4800mg per day and tolerate it just fine. I do not believe it is possible to OD in gabapentin because it is a neurotransmitter that responds to enhance good feelings. Your brain will only absorb what it needs, the rest is wasted.

I found a website that listed drugs that can affect blood glucose levels:

I didn't see Lorazepam or Ativan listed here.

No this is dangerous for a dog. If your dog has this bad anxiety take it to a vet. Dogs and other animals cant take human medication..our bodies arent the same

It might. You'd be smart to play it safe.

And may we say how much we admire your stellar brilliance in getting your medical

advice free on the internet, from people you've never met and who may or may not know what they're talking about and who may or may not care whether or not you go on living, instead of paying big bucks to doctors for the same (?) advice. We wish you continued good luck and good health.

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.

Yes you sure as hell can! Ok if you bought a normal pack of cigs you can do two things, first is to crush up the pill. Than, take out all off the tobacco ( BUT DONT THROW IT AWAY IT NEEDS TO GO BACK IN THE CIGARETTE!). Ok then grab a pinch of tobacco and put it back in then put in a pinch of some crushed up ativan and repeat like so, tobacco then ativan, tobacco, then ativan and you hafl a perfect ativan cigarette. In my get rid of the cottn in the filter, not the filter itself just th cotton part.

Secod way is so crush the pill into the finest powder you can get than empty only a tad bid of tobacco out keep that tobacoo of the cig than sprinkle ALL of the ativan in the cigarette but do it ever so slowley if you do it too fast it will just accumulate and be a big bump at the end of the cigarette. Once youve done that youll need something to push the tobacco/ativan down so use a head phone jack or the backside of a penicle or anything that will match the size of the cigeratte and puch down as much as you can the you put the tobacco you had back in and push it in then light up!

But the effects are as strong as lsd so be verycarfel.

Yes... It is.

It's caused by a very fare gene that has been linked to homosexuality. You have 72 hours before you catch the gay. It's caused by a very fare gene that has been linked to homosexuality. You have 72 hours before you catch the gay.

Lorazepam is Ativan

Alprazolam is Xanax

Similar type drugs, but I believe they affect different receptors

Yes. This is called a paradoxical reaction and would most likely occur in the elderly!

no

Yes... It's a benzodiazipine!

This is fine. It wont have the effect of missing the pill because you didnt miss a pill, you just took one pill 6 hours earlier than usual for you. Try to stay nearer the time for your medication but you are protected still against pregnancy.

tried 20 miligrams, just made me tired, will it have losg lasting effects
