Recently off librium still have minor withdrawal.dr gave me 10 ativan (lorazepam) for anxiety said 10 pill taper will not set me back with recovery. is this true?

Should be Okay: You should be okay to use the Ativan (lorazepam) as recommended to help with any withdrawal symptoms. You may use 1/2 of the Ativan (lorazepam) when needed or follow the instructions given to you by your medical provider. I would avoid alcohol during this time as well. Ativan (lorazepam) and Librium are both benzodiazepines which is why they could both be used in a tapering fashion to help discontinue the librium. Best wishes!

Please see your Psychiatrist for an evaluation of your medication. If you are not confident in your Psychiatrist please see another for a second opinion.
