What Causes Blurred Vision And Tremors After Taking Lorazepam?

I had gone to the hospital and was in pain, so I was given lorazapem to calm me down- 2 shots. It helped, but I woke up with blurry vision and uncontrollable shaking. It feels like a withdrawal. I also have Lyme s Disease. So, as an experiment I took two lorazepam and that helped calm me down. My question now is that what I can do to safely get off the medicine. Thank you.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Common side effects of lorazepam are drowsiness, dizziness, tiredness,
blurred vision, insomnia, muscle weakness, lack of balance or coordination,
amnesia or forgetfulness, trouble concentrating etc.

You also have lyme disease. So don't take lorazepam again. Inform your doctor about side effects and take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
