A member asked:
I took .5 mg ativan at 10:30am and then took .5mg xanax 6 hours later. is that dangerous? not something i plan to do again.

No: Not dangerous but not a good idea to forget or experiment with controlled medication. If you don't remember doses get a reminder pill box at the pharmacy.

Took a small dose of Ativan for two days. Then switched to Xanax the next day (after 24 hours) for panic attacks. Felt strange feeling at first, then subsided. Would these two interact or should be ok with not taking at exact same time?
