lorazepam and Absence Seizure

lorazepam has been researched along with Absence Seizure in 139 studies

Lorazepam: A benzodiazepine used as an anti-anxiety agent with few side effects. It also has hypnotic, anticonvulsant, and considerable sedative properties and has been proposed as a preanesthetic agent.

Trial Outcomes

Change in MADRS Score

Scoring of depressive symptoms on the Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale, maximum 60 , minimum 0. Higher scores mean worse outcome.
