A member asked:
Took lorazepam 1 mg twice daily for about six weeks. have cut down to .5 once daily. cani be having withdrawal from the lorazepam?

Probably not: We need more data. It will be unlikely for you to have withdrawal symptoms after being on Lorazepam for six weeks and then decreasing your dose to .5 once a day. It is possible but not probable.. What are your symptoms.
