What Is The Difference Between Ativan And Xanax?

Posted by admin on Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

I had a miscarriage last week at 8wks. The only meds the hospital gave me were 800 mg ibuprofen. Yesterday my Dr. also added a script for Ativan 1mg 4 x a day. With the holidays it took a while for the hospital to get her the records. Should I ask for something different? What is the difference between ativan and xanax? I have xanax for “as needed” from a while ago but I don’t know about taking it 4 times a day.

Xanax and Ativan are in the same class (benzodiazepines), but Xanax is shorter acting (lasts less time). 4 mg a day is an okay dose but a little hefty for someone with no prior use. See how you feel with it. My sympathies on your loss.
