Re: Lorazepam/Lethal overdose?

> I am currently taking 3.5 milligrams of lorazepam. I have had to increase the dosage over the past five years because of tolerance. I told a doctor that I wanted to get off of this drug. He prescribed 5 mg Valium because it has a longer half-life. I tried the Valium but it only seemed to increase my anxiety, and the morning after effects are terrible. I have been told to not abruptly stop taking the lorazepam because of possibility of seizures. I don't think that I can just take a little less each day. What can I do. I am a bit afraid now. In-service treatment is NOT a possibility for me. Any one with suggestions?

Is it possible to take a lethal overdose of lorazepam?
