Lorazepam(Ativan),Healthyplace.com:"Studies in healthy volunteers show that in single high doses Lorazepam has a tranquilizing action on the central nervous system with no appreciable effect on the respiratory or cardiovascular systems. Peak concentrations in plasma occur approximately 2 hours following administration. The peak plasma level of lorazepam from a 2 mg dose is approximately 20 ng/ml." http://www.healthyplace.com/medications/lorazepam.htm#description ******************************************************
Lorazepam(Ativan),Psyweb.com:"Lorazepam is an Antianxiety agent ( benzodiazepines, mild tranquilizer ) used for the relief of anxiety, agitation, irritability, to relieve insomnia, to calm people with mania / schizophrenia, and intravenously as a sedative and nervous tension or prior to surgery to relief the anxiety. It has less of an effect on the liver then other benzodiazepines, making it better suited if you are taking birth control pills, anti-abuse drugs, propranolol, ulcer medications, or any other drug that effects the liver.Ativan may also be used to help in the prevention of severe alcohol withdraw symptoms ( Delirium Tremens, DTs ), to treat serial seizures in children by placing it under the tongue, or in patients who are undergoing chemotherapy and have severe vomiting, to promote amnesia." ******************************************************
Lorazepam, Ativan®, Recovery First:"Ativan®, or Lorazepam, is a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety disorders. Use of Ativan® can cause addiction and physical dependence; withdrawal symptoms may occur if the drug is discontinued. Withdrawal symptoms can range from sleeplessness and anxiety to seizures and even death. Tolerance develops when the drug is taken over time, meaning that higher doses must be used to achieve the same effect." This link can be found in our "Drugs of Abuse, Commonly Abused Substances" section: http://www.prescriptionforviagra.com/abuse ******************************************************
Lorazepam(Ativan)Red Oak Psychiatry:",A benzodiazepine that has a tranquilizing action on the central nervous system. Indicated for the management of anxiety disorders or for the short-term relief of the symptoms of anxiety or anxiety associated with depressive symptoms. Anxiety or tension associated with the stress of everyday life usually does not require treatment with an anxiolytic." ******************************************************
Lorazepam(Ativan),RXlist:"Ativan may intensify the effects of alcohol. Avoid alcohol while taking this medication.If Ativan is taken with certain other drugs, the effects of either could be increased, decreased, or altered. It is especially important to check with your doctor before combining Ativan with barbiturates (phenobarbital, Seconal, Amytal) or sedative-type medications such as Valium and Halcion." ******************************************************
Lorazepam(Ativan), Whatmeds:"Ativan does not affect the liver as much as most benzodiazepines, a relevant consideration for patients taking birth control pills, anti-abuse drugs, propranolol, ulcer medications, or other drugs that also affect the liver.", ******************************************************
Lorezepam(Ativan)P-I-E-N-O:" Lorazepam is an oral and parenteral benzodiazepine used in the treatment of anxiety and status epilepticus. Other uses include perioperative sedation induction and anterograde amnesia. Intravenous lorazepam has replaced intravenous diazepam as the drug of choice for the treatment of status epilepticus because lorazepam persists in the CSF longer than diazepam. Some clinicians also prefer lorazepam over chlordiazepoxide or diazepam for controlling anxiety and agitation during ethanol withdrawal because lorazepam is not metabolized to active metabolites. " ******************************************************
Lorezpam(Ativan),Rxlist:"Lorazepam is administered orally. For optimal results, dose, frequency of administration, and duration of therapy should be individualized according to patient response. To facilitate this, 0.5 mg, 1 mg, and 2 mg tablets are available.The usual range is 2 to 6 mg/day given in divided doses, the largest dose being taken before bedtime, but the daily dosage may vary from 1 to 10 mg/day. Intramuscular Injection: For the designated indications as a premedicant, the usual recommended dose of lorazepam for intramuscular injection is 0.05 mg/kg up to a maximum of 4 mg." ******************************************************
Lorazepam(Ativan),MentalHealth.com:"ContraindicationsMyasthenia gravis, acute narrow angle glaucoma, known hypersensitivity to benzodiazepines. Lorazepam injectable is also contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol or benzyl alcohol. Lorazepam should not be injected intraarterially and care should be taken to prevent its extravasation into tissue adjacent to an artery because of the danger of producing arteriospasm resulting in gangrene which may require amputation." ******************************************************
Lorazepam(Ativan)Mosby's Drug Consult:,Lorazepam is readily absorbed with an absolute bioavailability of 90 percent. Peak concentrations in plasma occur approximately 2 hours following administration. The peak plasma level of lorazepam from a 2 mg dose is approximately 20 ng/ml." ******************************************************
