Description

LORNATE-2 contains Lorazepam which belongs to a group of medications called benzodiazepines used in the treatment of epilepsy (status epilepticus) and anxiety disorder.  It functions by enhancing the activity of a chemical messenger (GABA) that reduces the excessive and aberrant activity of the brain’s nerve cells. Lorazepam may be administered as a short-term treatment for insomnia brought on by anxiety. Additionally, it can be used as a sedative before surgery. A mental health condition known as an anxiety disorder is characterized by feelings of excessive fear or worry that interfere with a person’s daily activities. A persistent condition called epilepsy is characterized by seizures (fits).

Uses of Lorazepam 2 mg Tablets

Lorazepam 2 mg tablets is a component of the benzodiazepine class of drugs, which are mostly used to treat anxiety disorders and epilepsy (fits). Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a chemical mediator that reduces the activity of brain cells (neurons), is what LORAZEPAM includes to reduce anxiety, stop seizures (fits), and relax tense muscles. LORAZEPAM may also be recommended as a brief kind of therapy for people who have trouble falling or staying asleep because of anxiety.
