is ativan less sedating than Klonopin?

Posted by mmcconathy on January 23, 2005, at 18:26:42

I've got on Google and looks this up for hours, i got so bored out of my mind. Anyways, i didnt anything, i did find a couple studies on sieuzres, with ativan with more rapid onset, but thats it.

Klono can be sedating, does anyone out there find it better than Ativan

Or just compare them

Thanks

Matt

Ativan is much milder than Klonopin. I think of Klonopin as the go-to drug for anxiety/panic attacks, while Ativan I use for sleep, and occasional mild anxiety. Ativan doesn't actually "knock you out" the way Klonopin does--it just helps you relax so that you can fall asleep.

That's been my experience, anyway.
