What can i expect from 2 mgs of lorazapam 1st time using prescribed by an er doctor for sleep aid from work stress.

2mg Lorazepam: Er doctors would not prescribe anything long-term, but might prescribe 2mg Lorazepam for short-term in a very anxious patient. Such a patient might experience less anxiety, but could also experience drowsiness or even fall asleep. Er doctors would also recommend that the patient seek ongoing psychiatric evaluation ; care as an outpatient.

Lorazapam: Lorazapam 2 mg dose is usually for panic and severe anxiety. Please see a psychiatrist for work stress and sleep problem. It is likely that your anxiety will respond to lorazapam 1mg. Dose.
