as the others have said.....do NOT go cold turkey. there are different types of tapering or these medications all dependent on the dose and length of use. talk to a doctor...they will help you.

I assume you mean Lorazepam or Ativan, which is a benzodiazepine. It depends on how long you've been taking it. If you've been taking this medication for a while, months, you should not stop it abrruptly as that could have serious consequences. Tapering down works the best for this medication and you should do so in conjunction with your doctor. good luck
