Lorazepam Vs Clonazepqm

I take lorazepam and the doc wants to change it to clonazepqm. Has any one out there had experience with both these drugs? I know they r from the same family but so they make you feel the same way ? How does he clonazepqm affect you vs the lorazepam ?

I was on lorazepam and than changed to clonazepam, I don't really know why, no change has occurred. I think doctors try everything. Neither one made much of a difference. I think being on either one helps you sleep better.

I use it while I was pregnant with my son and afterwards . Clonezapam was really good, I had no problem with it.

Yes they both are benzodiazepines. But are not the same drug. Lorazepam and Ativan are the same drug ( one brand and one generic ). Klonipin and clonezapam are the same. --- I'm just curious what two drugs did you take ?

I guess one is cheaper than the others as far as pharmaceutical pricing.

They are the same drug. I tried them both. They are both atavan. They fall under the same family. They have the same effect.
