It depends...: On what you were using it for and what dose you were on.  If you were using it for insomnia, you might find that you are sleeping better even after just one sleepless night off it.  If you were on a large dose, you should taper it off slowly to avoid a seizure.  For many people, Lorazepam is prescribed because of an anxiety disorder, and that doesn't go away on its own.  Talk to your doctor.

Question 10

how long does it take to get over thyrotoxicotis?

Accepted Answer

Depends: If you treat with radioactive iodine (131-I), it could be resolved in as little as 6-10 weeks (but could take longer, and sometimes the treatment dose is too low, and doesn't cure it at all). If you're trying to treat it with methimazole, the data suggest that if you treat for 2 years, you have about a 50% chance of it being cured. Thus most patients' preference for radioactive iodine. Good luck!
