Answer 1

Here is your answer from a doctor. First of all there would be no reason to consume that amount in one dosage. The dosage is recommended from 2-6 mg over 24 hours., depending on anxiety. Your question alarms me. I do not know your age, sex, medical condition etc. There would be no reason to consume that in one dosage. They are a controlled substance and are addictive.

Answer 2

It may put you to sleep but it depends on your tolerence. Both
10 or 5 of them might. If you take to much you can have muscle spasms and short term memory loss. You may black out?
Sounds like something I would do. My tolerence is very, very high. It sucks to have high tolerence because I have to spend more money to get a buzz. Thank God them days are over. WHEW!

Answer 3

well one is enough to calm your nerves and make you prety relaxed ( i had a few before laser eye surgery) , about 5 would make you sleep(and ativan is used as a sleep aid) and i dont suggest it, 10 is an overdose even 5 is dangerous. but everyone reacts diffrently

Answer 4

this is prescribed for anxiety depression it can have side effects such as nauseousness you can go to sleep real fast it affect your neurological system and might feel hungover bad in the am.. i wouldn't take them. the one dose is big enough for your brain.. soooooo be careful if its not prescribed. when it comes to those scribs neurological ones.. and blood thinners and heart things they aren't to mess around with even for curiosity at all.. repercussions are deadly you wouldnt want to end up a vegetable if ur chemistry isnt fit for it
