Hi, I have read your query. You have not mention the dose of ativan your are taking.You msut consult your doctor for adjusting the dose of ativan as only by examining you your doctor can prescribe you the exact dose of ativan. As you are having shaking of body etc. This means you are not taking proper dose of atvan so please consult your doctor.
