Like all benzodiazepines, Ativan can cause physical dependence. Suddenly stopping therapy may be associated with agitation, insomnia, seizures, tremors, vomiting, and sweating. The usual dose of Ativan for treating anxiety is 2-3 mg/day given in two or three divided doses.
Ativan (lorazepam) is a member of the benzodiazepine class of drugs. Benzodiazepines are used primarily in the treatment of anxiety, seizure disorders, and as muscle relaxants. These drugs work on the major inhibitory neurotransmitter system in the brain, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).
