In reply to Ativan w. Effexor?, posted by sobstory on August 26, 2004, at 17:37:55
> But my doctor told me to take Ativan during the day because I have recently started to get panic attacks during the day at work. Does Ativan knock you out? Will I get really sleepy, and is it okay to take while on Effexor XR? I still need to be able to function at work.
What I found was that the generic (lorazepam) acted more like a sleeping pill while the name brand (Wyeth Ativan) acts like an anxiolytic. I take it during the day only, and it helps me function at work.
