Ativan

n. tranquilizer drug used for tension or anxiety

Lorazepam is a benzodiazepine tranquilizer with short to medium duration of action. It has all five intrinsic benzodiazepine effects:  anxiolytic, sedative/hypnotic, amnesic, anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant, to different extents. It is a unique benzodiazepine insofar as it has also found use as an adjunct antiemetic in chemotherapy. Since its introduction in 1971, lorazepam's principal use has been in treating the symptom of anxiety. Compared to other benzodiazepines, lorazepam has relatively high addictive potential.
