Ativan Detox

Additional Information

People who are addicted to the anti-anxiety medication Lorazepam brand name Ativan should not attempt to detox on their own. It is part of a class of drugs called benzodiazepines and can be highly addicting. Withdrawal from benzodiazepines can be intense and should be monitored in a medical setting where patient safety and comfort is top priority.

Other benzodiazepines include Klonopin, Valium and Xanax. The Waismann Method offers a comprehensive, safe and confidential treatment for Lorazepam(Ativan) addiction without using blame, shame or guilt in the process.

How Benzodiazepine Dependency Takes Hold

Patients can become dependent upon benzodiazepines such as Lorazepam(Ativan), even while using them at therapeutic doses. Others may become dependent on the drugs by using them at higher doses on a daily basis for more than a few weeks. Others may become dependent by taking more than the prescribed dose of Ativan, possibly erratically, and many times in combination with other drugs.
