Makes no sense: they are both similar drugs. It is highly unlikely a doctor prescribed both at the same time. This implies, multiple prescribers. so, no.

Insomnia: Both Ativan (lorazepam) and Clonanzepam are medications for Anxiety. In decreasing Anxiety thoughts and anxiety feeling, EITHER Medication can help you sleep. Therapy for stress will benefit. Consider: Exercise or Yoga in the evening.
