I threw my back out and was prescribed norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) 5/325 but it gives me anxiety. i also get prescribed lorazepam 1mg. can i take both?

Technically: I'd suggest taking 1/4 tablet (0.25 mg) of the lorazepam only if you absolutely need to ... This should help the anxiety. These 2 medications do interact negatively and that might cause hypotension, respiratory depression, Motor functions to slow and vasodilation. If you experience any of these alarming symptoms - head to the ER.
