I’m wondering so many months after your post if you found help weaning off your Ativan? I have taken alprazolam .5 mg daily for several years and really want off the stuff. I’m pretty sure it’s now causing increased anxiety and depression. I’m 72 years old and had a litany of meds I was blaming for this issue, but never the alprazolam. Well, with the doctor’s help, I’ve stopped statins and beta blockers. Now, nothing left to stop but 50 mg of Losartan which doctor said stopping is out of the question. A have an ascending aortic aneurysm that needs protecting. Wondering if you ( or anyone else) can help with weaning off this drug?
