What should I know about taking Ultram and Atavan?

Answer by  rosieposey78 (1304)

Ativan is a strong sedative used for anxiey. Ultram is a painkiller used to treat moderate to severe pain. Both of these medications used together can interact to depress the central nervous system as well as the respiratory system. Avoiding hazardous activities needing full attention would be needed until it is known how these two medications affect the patient.

Ultram is a strong pain relieiver, first developed as a non-narcotic with the strength of a narcotic. Atavan is a drug in the class know as benzodiazapines and is an antiaxiety medication. It also works as a muscle relaxant, though not as affective as others, specifically designed for that purpose.

Ultram is a non-narcotic pain reliever. Ativan is an anti-anxiety medication. Both of these medications can interfere with one's mentation and caution must be used when using concurrently. Another thing to consider is that both of these medication can cause dependence. If someone previously has had dependence problems these drugs should be avoided.

Ultram is a pain reliever and Ativan is a p. r. n. drug in the family of benzodiazepines. Because of potential dangers, you should not mix these drugs without physician approval.
