4mg is *not* a small dose of Ativan! Your doctor should not c/t you off that amount because seizures are definitely a possibility if you are taking 4mg days in a row. I would question him about this and read the literature about abrupt cessation of that amount of Ativan. You're asking for trouble. A slow taper is the way to go IMO.
Best wishes,
Val> 1mg-4mg. i believe that seizures are usually more associated with higher doses, though exactly what constitutes that "high dose" I'm not sure. thanks, ramsea
