Lorazepam trade names?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Lorazepam

Common brand (trade) names for lorazepam

Lorazepam is sold under multiple brand names, which can vary by country and manufacturer. Common U.S. trade names include:

- Ativan
- Lorazepam (many products are marketed under the generic name as well)

Do trade names differ from one product to another?

Yes. Even when the active ingredient is lorazepam, the trade name can differ based on:
- Manufacturer
- Dosage form (tablets, oral concentrate, etc.)
- Strength (for example, 0.5 mg vs 1 mg vs 2 mg)

Because of that, two people may both be taking lorazepam but see different trade names on their prescriptions.

How can you confirm a pill’s drug if you only know the trade name?

Check the label for:
- Active ingredient: lorazepam
- Strength (mg)
- Dosage form
- Manufacturer

If you have an imprint code from the tablet (letters/numbers stamped on the pill), you can often match it to lorazepam and the specific product.
