How do you maximize ativan?

In: Medication and Drugs, Benzodiazepines, Ativan [Edit categories]

Answer:

valporic acid supposedly doubles the plasma concentration of lorazepam (Ativan), which I believe is in Depakote, a mood stabilizing/anti-epileptic medication. I am not 100% certain. Grapefruit also potentiates some benzos, but I don't know if Ativan is one of them.
