Hello Doctor. Actually my B12 was quite low and I was having anxiety issues with heart palpitation so heart specialist advised me supradyn thrice a day ativan 1 mg in morning and ativan 2 mg at night and since last 15 days I am having it but after few days I was feeling dizziness and anxiety sometimes so shall I stop taking supradyn thrice a day or what. Gimme your valuable suggestion. And one thing to mention ativan 1 mg was given for the first 2 weeks and 2 mg for 3 weeks. Thanks in advance.

All fine, but ativan is highly addictive and harmful on a longer run. It is a benzodiazepine and should not be given for long time as it can cause severe cognitive deficits, personality changes, mood changes and even withdrawal seizures. If sleep is a problem consult a psychiatrist to get medications that act on sleep neurotransmitters and provide the same. All the best.
