lorazepam taper
by lgino87, Mar 26, 2009 05:05PM
i was wondering what kind of taper i should do with the lorazpam. ive been on it for 6 months and for 4 months i took 1mg than i started to take 2 mgfor the past couple months.
im tapering of oxys aswell and going to detox soon, do you think its a good idea to quit both at once? or should i wait till i get off the oxy's?

Personally, W/D from opiates for me created anxiety, so I do take an Ativan (Lorazepam) once in a while...it helps.
Ask your doc...
Good luck and keep posting
as for the lorazepam, i was up to 3 mg. at night, then dropped to 2 mg. at night, then 1.5 mg. at night for a month, then it will be 1 mg at night for a month, then .5 mg at night for a month, and from there i'll jump off totally.....yes, we have to be careful with the benzos....this is the taper my doctor suggested for me.....
hope that helps, but please DO consult your doctor....good luck!!!
