I have seizures too. Try asking your doctor about Clonazepam. You can take that prn (as needed) and its very strong stuff. The stuff is almost as strong as ativan, as far as stoping a seizure goes, which is what they typically give you in the er when you are having a seizure or they need to prevent you from having another.
 
That is good idea

Ativan (Lorazepam) is in the class of medications known as benzodiazepams (Valium is in the same class) . THey work by changing the electrolyte channels in brain cells to depress brain activity . At low doses they do in fact decrease "anxiety" feelings. However at slightly higher doses they will change enough of the channels to "stop a seizure". Many drugs that were developed as anti seizure drugs are currently now used to help psychiatric conditions (Depakote, neurontin, Topamax, etc.) Since they were developed to "get into the brain" to stop seizures , it is not sucha a stretch of the imagination to think that they also "get into the brain" to help psychiatric conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar, etc. Hope this response is helpful

How does ativan stop a seizure? - Yahoo! Answers

Ativan in higher doses helps with seizures too. It is not only to calm you down. :)
 
Jason, Klonopin (clonazepam) isn't that strong of medication. If a patient is having an acute seizure activity in the hospital or ER, Valium or Ativan is what is most likely to be given. Valium probably 90% of the time. Clonazepam cannot even be administered IV. The relationship it has to seizure activity is same as anyone taking benzodiazepines long term. If taken long term and you stop taking them suddenly, you may experience seizure activity if susceptable to them. There are much more appropriate maintenance medications to take when sufferring seizure disorders.

Clonazepam is not Ativan! Please do not confuse these drugs as being the same drug. I was just merely analogizing and nothing more.

Clonazepam is a very "highly potent anti-convulsant". The drug does, after all, inhibit synaptic transmission across the central nervous system.

Medications are given intravenously, as in the case of some anti-convulsants, because it is a faster method of getting a drug into the blood stream not because the drug being administered is more potent then another.

Are you trying to educate me or prove a point with something? Please don't presume that there is anything about ANY drug that I cannot rehearse a lecture without any "sources"

Just pointing out that your statement about Clonazepam is wrong.

Actually, no he wasn't.


Ativan and Klonopin are both benzodiazepine tranquilizers. They are also both used for a myriad of reasons; seizure control being one of them. Ativan is more widely used for acute seizure; whereas klonopin is more widely used as maintenance, I believe.

At any rate, neither med is necessarily superior to the other. They both are good for what they are prescribed for. But, besides that, NONE of us really should be recommending medications as NONE of us are doctors.
