Is xanax the same as Lorazepam?

No, Xanax is the trade name for a drug called Alprazolam. The drug Lorazepam has a trade name of Ativan. Both are benzodiazapens that work in a similar way, however they are different drugs.

Do not suddenly stop using this drug without your doctor's approval. Some conditions may become worse when the drug is abruptly stopped. Your dose needs to be GRADUALLY decreased. Withdrawal symptoms may occur following abrupt discontinuation or large decreases in dose. Use caution when reducing dose or withdrawing therapy; decrease slowly and monitor for withdrawal symptoms.Depending on how long ou have been taking it matters alot. You can reduce the amount of times you take it a day or drop slowly to .05mg at the same amount of times a day then slowly reduce. But dont do anything without a doctors approval .
