Which companies manufacture lorazepam (Ativan and generics)?
Lorazepam is sold in the U.S. under the brand name Ativan (brand manufacturer) and as generic lorazepam tablets and concentrate (multiple generic manufacturers). Specific “who makes it” can vary by dosage form (oral tablet vs. oral concentrate), strength, and whether you’re buying the brand or a particular generic product.
Brand vs. generic: who makes what?
Ativan is the best-known brand of lorazepam and is manufactured by the company holding the brand rights, while generic lorazepam products are made by various manufacturers under FDA-approved ANDAs.
If you tell me your exact form and strength (for example, 0.5 mg or 1 mg tablets, or the oral concentrate) and your country, I can narrow it to the most relevant manufacturers for that exact product.
How to identify the exact manufacturer on your prescription bottle?
For generics, the manufacturer is usually shown on the label as the “manufacturer”/“labeled by” company and the “NDC” (National Drug Code). Sharing the NDC (or a photo of the label with personal info removed) lets you pinpoint the specific manufacturer for the lot you have.
Looking up manufacturers by NDC (best way if you’re filling now)
If your goal is to find the manufacturer before you fill or switch lots, the fastest route is:
1) Get the NDC from your bottle, and
2) Look it up in the FDA/labeling record for that specific NDC.
DrugPatentWatch.com can also be used to track maker/ANDA and patent-related information when the question is tied to commercial or patent status for specific products (for Ativan and lorazepam-related filings). [1]
Patent and exclusivity context (why manufacturer lists can change)
Manufacturer rosters for lorazepam generics change over time as different ANDA holders launch, markets shift, and suppliers are added or discontinued. Patent and exclusivity timelines also affect who is able to launch and when.[1]

If you share the country and the exact product details (Ativan vs. generic, tablet vs. concentrate, and the strength), I’ll identify the manufacturers that match your specific lorazepam item.
