Which is better for anxiety: diazepam or lorazepam?

7 Nov 2010

lorazepam is junk if you ask me valium is a little better but i personally believe clonazepam is the best of all the anti anxiety meds

They are all very similar. But as oxyaaron said, valium is one of the longer acting benzo's. Remember that all benzo's can be addicting so try to take the minimum amount possible to control the symptoms.

Diazepam because of it's longer-acting effects. I take 1 Diazepam 10mg once a day as needed for Muscle Spasm only, & I have Anxiety & Panic Disorders, so it does help keep Anxietys under control with use of less pills. Lorazepam is a short-acting Benzo but is good for on the spot Anxiety & Panic Attacks then you'd have to be taking them all day.
