Lorazepam is a medication belonging to the benzodiazepine class, commonly sold under the brand name Ativan. It is primarily used to treat anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and panic disorder. Lorazepam works by enhancing the effects of a neurotransmitter in the brain called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which has a calming effect on the central nervous system.
