Lozepam Gastrointestinal Side Effects

Hi all,

I've started retaking lorazepam temporarily until my xanax prescription comes in. I originally went off lorazepam a year ago because it affected my stomach. I am not sure how to describe it. It doesn't hurt, not diarrhea or constipation, but it immediately starts feeling uncomfortable once the lorazepam kicks in. I told my psych but he acted like that was an unusual side effect, and made it seem like I must be misunderstanding an actual side effect.

I wish I could describe it better but my stomach without fail will feel uncomfortable after taking lorazepam and eating food on top of it makes me feel worse.

Has anyone experienced anything like this? Hopefully I will go back to xanax soon, but this has always stumped me.

Thanks for your help!

Hello, Katharine! How are you?

This medication has been known to cause indigestion in some people that take it, as listed by the FDA. The symptoms of it, or the way it feels can vary from person to person. Other typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. This medication also carries the risk of being habit forming.

Is there anything else I can help with?
