Lorazepam: Usually such meds are best taken when you can stay at home and see how you react, usually you will build up some tolerance to the sedation, but if you say over sedation, thats cause for concern and you should contact your md and not drive or do anything hazardous. You should also avoid alcohol and such with lorazepam.
