How is lorazepam tablet?

Lorazepam tablets are a benzodiazepine sedative-hypnotic medication primarily used to relieve anxiety, induce sedation and sleep, and alleviate tension and fear. They must be taken strictly as prescribed by a physician; self-medication is not recommended. If severe dizziness, respiratory depression, or allergic reactions occur after taking the medication, prompt medical attention is advised.

Lorazepam works by enhancing the effects of inhibitory neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, rapidly alleviating anxiety. It is effective for generalized anxiety disorder and panic attacks. Additionally, it can promote sleep and improve difficulties with falling asleep and light sleep, showing clear benefits when used short-term.

However, this medication may cause certain side effects, including common symptoms such as dizziness, drowsiness, and fatigue. Long-term use may lead to dependence and tolerance, and abrupt discontinuation may result in withdrawal symptoms. Moreover, overdose can cause serious risks such as slowed breathing and low blood pressure, so dosage must be strictly controlled.

Alcohol and other central nervous system depressants should be avoided during treatment, and patients should refrain from driving or operating precision instruments. The medication should be taken exactly as prescribed, without altering the dose or stopping abruptly. Store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children.
