A member asked:

I take lorazepam .5mg for anxiety everyday. was given tylenol (acetaminophen) codeine #3 after root canal. is it safe to take both? do i need to space them out?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lorazepam +pain med: Codeine combined with lorazepam may increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating. Lorazepam is in the system many hours. Suggest you tell your dentist you take lorazepam and ask for a non-narcotic pain med to try first. I hope this helps. Best wishes.
