Ativan/lortab During Pregnancy Posted: 10-14-05 21:37pm
I was prescribed lortab during my last
pregnancy but only took it 1 or 2 times.
Has anyone else taken it?
And what about ativan? Or similar benzos,
like xanax? I know we aren't supposed to
take them during the first trimester
because it can cause cleft palate, but
anyone have experience taking it later in
pregnancy?
I have an extremely frightening,
panic-provoking situation coming up in a
few weeks and want to keep my options
open. My ob told me not to take ativan
but you have to wonder if they are just
covering their behinds, you know?

You should talk to your doctor or even get
a second apinion about taking ativan. For
some reason I don't think anyone should
take it if you are pregnant. Here is a
website you can check out about the drug.
I just wouldn't want to see anything bad
happen to you or your baby. Good luck
and I hope it all works out for you :)
I say no. I was on paxil before I got
preg and cut my dose down while preg and
now am off of it. But ativan is
dangerous. Y.O.G.A!!!!!! That's my
advice.
