The Drugs like the ATIVAN the most important things about ativan The [b:93d0f676d1][url=http://www.crdrx.com]Ativan[/url][/b:93d0f676d1] (Lorazepam) is a benzodiazepine with CNS depressant, anxiolytic and sedative properties. Peak serum concentrations of free lorazepam after oral administration are reached in 1 to 6 hours. Peak concentrations are reached in 60 to 90 minutes after i.m. administration and in 60 minutes after sublingual administration. Lorazepam is 85% bound to plasma proteins. Lorazepam is rapidly conjugated to an inactive glucuronide. Very small amounts of other metabolites have also been isolated in man. The serum half-life of lorazepam is approximately 12 to 15 hours while the half-life of the conjugate is 16 to 20 hours. Ninety-five percent of the drug was excreted within 120 hours, 88% in the urine and 6.6% in the stool.

Indomethacin & shoulder pain
I have been off and on using Indomethacin for several years although recently my shoulder pain has increased from occassional to constantly and relatively easy to ignore to constant and quite uncomfortable. I am one of those who only likes to take medication as long as I need it and then for only as long as minimally needed. This medication also seems to bother my stomach so after a few weeks of 3 / 25 mg tabs I go off it and wait for it to return. Lately it is getting worse so I am back on it and may have to stay on it. When I was younger it seemed easier to get over these attacks but now that I am in my mid 60's I may have to stay on it for relief. Anyone had any long term use results or comments on how to get the best results?
Thanks,
W

Indomethacin and headaches
Hi, I've just joined this forum and seen your question.

I take Indo for Chronic Paroxsymal Hemiacrania - a type of cluster headache. It's known to be the only effective pain relief for CPH headaches.

I can't say for sure if my body's got used to it but I am suffering from more headaches than I used to when I first started taking it.
