Ativan: Description
Ativan is a drug that belongs to the group named benzodiazepine. This medication is prescribed by the doctor to treat anxiety, insomnia, or other problems related to sleep and status epilepticus, a type of severe seizure. It can also be given in case of muscle spasm, mania (bipolar disorder), and to relieve symptoms from alcohol withdrawal.
Ativan and Its working
Ativan works by boosting the activity of the neurotransmitter, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors in the brain. It, in turn, slows down the movement of the brain resulting in feeling drowsy and imparting a calming or tranquilizing effect.
Dosage and Overdosage
The recommended dose of Ativan is 2mg to 6mg per day to be taken in divided doses. In case of anxiety, the doctor prescribes 2 to 3 mg dose of Ativan to be taken twice or thrice a day. For insomnia caused due to stress or anxiety, 2 to 4mg is prescribed to be taken at bedtime. Older adults or people with certain conditions should start the treatment with a lower dosage that is 1 to 2 mg, taken twice or thrice daily for anxiety or once at bedtime for insomnia.
