Indication For the management of anxiety disorders or for the short-term relief of the symptoms of anxiety or anxiety associated with depressive symptoms
Pharmacology Lorazepam, a benzodiazepine not transformed to active metabolites, is used to treat anxiety, status epilepticus, and for sedation induction and anterograde amnesia.
Mechanism of Action Lorazepam binds to central benzodiazepine receptors which interact allosterically with GABA receptors. This potentiates the effects of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA, increasing the inhibition of the ascending reticular activating system and blocking the cortical and limbic arousal that occurs following stimulation of the reticular pathways.
Absorption Readily absorbed with an absolute bioavailability of 90%.
Toxicity Somnolence, confusion, and coma, LD50=3178mg/kg (orally in mice).
Protein Binding 85%
Biotransformation Hepatic
Half Life 12 hours
