Ativan, also known by its generic name Lorazepam, is a medication commonly prescribed to treat anxiety disorders, insomnia, and certain types of seizures. It belongs to the benzodiazepine class of drugs, which are known for their calming and sedative effects. Ativan works by enhancing the effects of a neurotransmitter in the brain called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which helps to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation.
