Drug Interaction: Advil (ibuprofen) PM oral and Ativan oral both increase sedation and drowsiness. Always talk to your doctor before starting any new prescription or over-the-counter medication or dietary supplement.

Safe: Should be safe. Advil pm contains a small amount of benadryl (diphenhydramine) which can make you drowsy but the ativan has had plenty of time to wear off by then.
