Ativan

Diclectin, a medication for nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, and Ativan (lorazepam), an anti-anxiety medication, can be prescribed together, but it is essential to do so under the guidance of a healthcare professional. While there are no direct contraindications, both medications can cause sedation and may enhance each other's side effects. Always consult with a doctor or pharmacist before combining these medications to ensure safety and appropriate dosing.

Inhaling lorazepam, which is not recommended as it is intended for oral or intravenous use, can lead to unpredictable effects and potential harm. It may cause respiratory distress, increased sedation, or overdose symptoms due to rapid absorption into the bloodstream. Additionally, inhalation can irritate the lungs and lead to complications. Always use medications as prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Lorazepam has a quick release which will induce effects between 45mins to 90mins depending on weight, mood, and if this med is taken on a full/empty stomach. However for me (someone whos been on it for 4months) taking lorazepam on an empty stomach hits a few minitues sooner though it could upset your stomach. Lorazepam peaks within 1.5-2.00 hrs, and effects are generally felt for a good 3-6hrs. The half life of lorazepam 10-20hrs is longer than most other prescribed benzos accept for klonopin(clonanzepam)18-50hrs and valium( diazepam) halft life 20-200hrs

Taking Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) with Ativan (lorazepam) and Doxepin can increase the risk of sedation and respiratory depression due to their combined effects as central nervous system depressants. It's essential to consult a healthcare professional before combining these medications to ensure safety and monitor for any potential adverse effects. Always follow your doctor's guidance regarding medication use.

Yep that's fine...there are no interactions between those two drugs

Yes, I have taken the two together but talk with your doctor first, don't just go ahead and do it. I have taken a regiment of Oxycontin 20mg twice daily, Percocet 5/325- 1-2 4 times daily, Oxycodone IR 5mg 3 times a day (for break-through pain) and Lorazepam .5mg 3 times a day after brain surgery. Like I said though, speak with your doctor first, don't just take it.

Drowsiness and dizziness are some side effects of taking lorazepam and dilaudid together. Difficulty concentrating is another common side effect of taking both drugs together.

Starts within 5-10 minutes, maximum effect is reached around 40 minutes.

It depends on how fast your body metabolizes the drug lorazepam. It's half life is 9-16 hours, so half of what you took will be out of your system in I'd average 12 to 13. Commonly, it is only effective 6-12 hours. So therefore, after a day, the effects from it should not be noticeable, but as a warning you might have withdrawal and increased anxiety from the lorazepam unless you wean off (break it into the smallest pieces possible by at least half your regular dose until that subsides, and then stop taking it completely).

What you could try doing, is taking a dose of the lorazepam that is just enough to work, so that way the next day it will be at a low enough level where you will not notice the drug working at all. So if for instance, it takes 1 mg to fall asleep or "work", but you don't feel a thing (literally, nothing) from a .5 mg dose, then do that. So just take the least amount needed, as needed. If the dose you need for what ever you are using it for is low enough, weaning off might not be necessary - it depends on what you are taking it for and how often - generally if you rarely taking it, it is less likely to give a withdrawal.

I hope that answers the question.

NO. Take your cat to a vet. Cats that have anxiety problems almost always have a serious health problem causing it. If you care about your cat, you'll take him/her to a vet ASAP.

This guy is both wrong and right. Taking an animal that is dependent on you for its safety into your home is nothing to mess with. No medication, especially such an addictive one such as a benzodiazepine, should be given to your pet, or another human for that matter, without checking with a vet.

That said, if your cat accidentally swallowed a small dosage, it's actually better news than if they swallowed something more toxic- like tylenol! They will probably act slow and sedated for a little while, and then just pass out and have a really long rest. If it was truly a one time thing and the dosage was less than ~1 mg for an adult cat, then they will likely be fine. Benzodiazepine is commonly used in high doses as animal tranquilizers (I think horses are given 600x the human doses just so they can treat aggressive stallions and such).

As with humans, though, people who drug their animals will have to deal with dependence/withdrawal, which is extraordinarily cruel to do to an animal. Once your pet is hooked on a medication, like a benzo, they will have to be tapered off and will probably have uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms.

Another Answer:

I don't know if this is true, but I've heard that for an anxious cat or dog it's best to give them something like melatonin, a natural hormone, just to get them sleepy as needed.

Will lorazepam and klonopin show up differently on a lab drug test you get prescribed klonopin and a friend gave you ativan and you need to know if a lab can tell the difference between the two?

Yes, you can take Lorazepam with Excedrin PM.

Lorazepam is an anti-anxiety medication.

Excedrin PM contains acetaminophen (Tylenol) and diphenhydramine (Benadryl). Both are safe to take with Lorazepam.

Please kindly note that anxiety takes a great deal of time to go, and now that the doctor has reduced your dose to 0.5 mg . is good . Put take it till the doctor says only.

yes you take Prozac and ativan .

Ativan is in the same family as Valium. They are both Benzodiazepines. Ativan is about 10 times stronger in terms of DOSE than Valium. They are two different chemicals but have similar effects. Some make you sleepier, and some work more at anxiety. I think Ativan is better than Valium at reducing anxiety but Valium makes you sleepier. But they are both similar so you probably won't notice the difference.
