A member asked:
I tend to have a lower heart rate (around 58) because i eat low calorie, but i have anxiety. i read ativan can lower heart rate. is it safe to take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Ativan has no direct effect on your heart or your heart rate. It only lowers heart rate by making you calmer. It's entirely safe to take. it's given to people during their heart attacks without adverse consequences.
