Dangerous practice: I must say that having 6 to 7 alcoholic beverages is quite excessive. You should not be using any alcohol if you take Trintellix or if you use Lorazepam. This doesn't mean that you try to careful time doses between alcohol use - it means avoiding alcohol use. Suggest you hold off on Lorazepam. Please let your prescribing provider know about your alcohol use.
