Common Questions and Answers about Percocet and lorazepam
percocet
Percocet can depress your respiratory system and Lorazepam is a sedative. They can be dangerous taken together because of the risk of OD. But if he has been taking them together for awhile and is under a doctors care he should be fine. I was hooked on Percocet and would take Lorazepam sometimes for panic attacks, never had a problem. I was also on anti-depressants. There is a risk. How much of each is he taking?

Hi there. I took an overdose once and had my stomach pumped. But you're awake now so that part I'm unsure about.
What's important now is to make sure you don't repeat this behavior.
Do you know why you did this? Do you want someone to talk with? You may also private message me. Ok?
I've been on Zoloft just 1 week so far. Today, I started feeling a little better. I read it can take up to a month to work. I cut my dose of Lorazepam in half to see how I would feel and so far so good. I've been to counseling for years. I think the Lorazepam caught up to me as I'm not getting the benefits I used to out of it. Hopefully, the Zoloft alone will work eventually. Thanks for responding!
For example, in natural medicine the thing to add would be passionflower and hops or kava or something like that, which if they work will do what lorazepam does without the addiction problem. There would also be dietary and exercise and meditation changes involved, a whole body approach as opposed to a one remedy cures all approach.
You have obviously never needed to take any type of stress/anxiety meds. 1mg of Lorazepam is nothing. When I was taking it I would go to a psychiatrist, eventually he told me I could just have my rx maintained by my family doc. Even with a letter to the family practice Dr from my Psychiatrist, the Dr balked at the Lorazepam and tried to get me to take some new stuff that the "legal drug pushers (drug reps)" gave him samples of.
If there is no contraindication for taking depakote and lorazepam, they may tell you to go ahead and take your normal dose of lorazepam but to contact your doctor ASAP.
Make some calls and you'll soon be back in control.......you'll be fine.
And either find a new doctor or let this one know that when it comes to medications, anytime they add something or change something......
My doctor perscribed lorazepam (ativan) and clonidine when I went off percocet a few years ago. I went to check into a rehab facility and because I was dressed like "middle class suburbia" they told me that I shouldn't check in there because I may not "feel comfortable" (the facility & nurse called me several times after I left and told me to come back and apologized).
I have been taking as much as 150mg and as little as 20mg of lortab per day for months now, I had a bad addiction to them 5yrs ago and managed to get off of them but low and behold I ended back on the same road. I know that it'll only last for about a week but I am a full time student and can't afford to stay home and in bed because of the cold sweats, diarreah, and just aching from head to toe all day. Does anyone have any advise?
t take the edge off stress and worry and the no sleep. You hit it exactly,heard so many lorazepam horror stories making more uncertainty. I take 1/2 to 1/4 of a 5 mil only at night for fear over problems. my current Dr doesn't seem worried about adverse effects. If it wasn't for the insomnia i would try to tough it out without pills.
Have read many of your posts,a beautiful blend of information and compassion.
The script stopped and our mother became miserable with insomnia, anxiety and depression. And we never ever saw the Mom we always knew. My sister and I regret it to this day. Mom died of cancer at 87. At the time she was taking TylenolPM every night for sleep. Her doctors in Florida gave her Ambien for a good reason, she had insomnia. And we had no business messing with her delicate balance of medications prescribed to make her final years comfortable.
By consulting with your doctor or a psychiatric medication manager. We are not doctors here and cannot tell you how to taper off a medication. But taper you must. Do not just stop cold turkey.
Hi,
I've been on Lorazepam and Codeine for just over a year. About 4 months ago my doctor put me on half/half Methodone & Codeine, when I complained about codeine's strength. Then I dropped the codeine. After about a month, because of side effects, I tried to go back to Codeine, but had problems sleeping, So, For the last 2 months I've been on about 30 mg. Methodone, and about 10 mg. lorazepam daily.
You must speak to a medical professional, we can't give you any advice regarding medications. Anti-depressants and psychiatric drugs can take time to work, there aren't instant cure pills. With all the meds you are taking, call your doctor or at least speak to your pharmacist.
