Nausea/Vomiting
"Ativan is the only drug that can stop my vomiting when I&#039;m in the middle of a bad cycle (I have cyclical vomiting syndrome which is triggered by neurally mediated hypotension.) I&#039;ve never had any nasty side effects. I just get pleasantly loopy and very sleepy which is usually a blessing after staying up all night. I don&#039;t have a prescription for it so I end up in the ER a few times a year which is when they give it to me. (By the time it&#039;s that bad, I need IV fluids anyway so...)"
