A member asked:
I took a .5mg ativan at 10:30am and another at 12:45pm. i'm hoping to have a couple drinks tonight. what is the appropriate amount of time to wait?

4 hours after: You would be safe to take it after about 4 hours after the last time you took a benzodiazepine. Just be aware that the alcohol will hit you much more aggressively than usual, plan for that and maybe cut back a little on your normal alcohol consumption.
