Lorazepam and Clonazepam both come up in the same conversations; they overlap on GABA. Lorazepam: Lorazepam (brand name Ativan) is a widely used prescription benzodiazepine for anxiety, sedation, seizures and alcohol withdrawal. Clonazepam: Clonazepam is a widely prescribed, long-acting benzodiazepine used for anxiety, panic and seizure disorders.
Lorazepam (brand name Ativan) is a widely used prescription benzodiazepine for anxiety, sedation, seizures and alcohol withdrawal. It enhances GABA, the brain's main calming neurotransmitter, to produce anxiety relief, sedation and muscle relaxation. It is intermediate-acting and, unlike many benzodiazepines, has no active metabolites, but it carries the same dependence and depressant-synergy risks as the rest of its class.
Clonazepam is a widely prescribed, long-acting benzodiazepine used for anxiety, panic and seizure disorders. It works by boosting GABA, the brain's main calming neurotransmitter, which produces sedation, anxiety relief and strong anticonvulsant effects. Its long duration makes it useful medically but also means it accumulates, and like all benzodiazepines it causes dependence and is dangerous with other depressants.
