[QUOTE=AnnieB3;1261640]If medical professionals don't want to think, they should take the Ativan! That is a classic thing they do to patients, so that patients will leave the staff alone while they are busy. And you know, we woman are prone to being full of anxiety . . . "

My daughter is in ICU on a ventilator and just started plasmapharesis last night because several doses of IVIG were not working.

They have given her ativan multiple times to calm her, but now I'm seeing that it shouldn't be given to MG patients. What is an alternative, safe drug for those on a venitilator (with agitation)?
