Question 9

i have an ativan habit because i cant sleep at night. i am taking invega sustenna, (paliperidone palmitate) benadryl, geodon 80mg, and cogentin. im trying to rid of ativan?

Accepted Answer

Ativan (lorazepam): Ativan (lorazepam) is not indicated for treatment of insomnia. It produces tolerance and dependence when used long-term. Long-term treatment with medication alone is not the optimal treatment strategy. Any abrupt or overly rapid reduction in Ativan (lorazepam) dose among chronic users can produce withdrawal. Symptoms and signs can include tremors, anxiety, perceptual disturbances, dysphoria, psychosis, and seizures.

Question 10

i have excessive mucus i feel like i always need to clean my airways by coughing or anything lately i am feeling like the mucus is so much in my stomach i feel it bad i cant sleep at night it makes me feel so scared?

Accepted Answer

Excess mucus: Excessive mucus and feeling like you always need to cough or clean your airways is usually a sign of mucus production in your sinuses that keeps draining down and gives you the symptoms you are experiencing. Typically it is caused by allergies, using antihistamines or otc nose sprays can help. Also can do a humidifier at night. Please get it examined if it persists.
