Timing

Take Lorazepam only as prescribed — benzodiazepines carry dependence risk and should not be adjusted without medical guidance. Phosphatidylserine at a separate time. Avoid GABA supplements and high-dose melatonin alongside benzodiazepines. Magnesium at normal doses is generally safe and supports nervous system function.

Risk factors

Higher risk for: elderly (fall risk, oversedation), those with respiratory conditions, concurrent opioid or alcohol use, liver impairment, history of substance use disorder, or those on multiple CNS depressants.

When to seek emergency help: Severely slowed or stopped breathing, inability to be woken, severe confusion, fainting, or paradoxical agitation. Never combine with alcohol. Do not stop benzodiazepines abruptly — taper under medical supervision.
