Psychiatric Med Minute – Ativan

This month on our Psychiatric Med Minute we’re talking about Ativan. Ativan carries a higher risk of dependence than other benzodiazepines, and withdrawal symptoms can be mistaken for behaviors. Learn this and other side-effects of Ativan in the video above!

Did you know that all of our Psychiatric Med Minute videos are also available on our app, The DSP Handbook, for easy access and viewing?

The DSP Handbook also has lots of other useful tools and resources to help you support people who have IDD and autism. Available for iPhone or Android. 100% FREE to download and use!
