Anxiety
"I&#039;ve been on Ativan for 4 months now: 0.5mg once or twice a day to control my anxiety attacks. I only take if when I feel jittery, flushing in my face, a heavy headache akin to tension headache and dizziness. Usually these symptoms subside within 1 to 2 hours of dosing. Sometimes as quickly as half an hour and it is not often that I have to take 1mg in two divided (0.5mg) 6-hourly doses. Last month, I didn&#039;t take Ativan for 5 straight days and I didn&#039;t suffer any withdrawal symptoms or rebounds."
