The order says 1 milligram lorazepam per dose.
Each tablet contains 0.5 milligram lorazepam.
Number of tablets per dose = amount of drug per dose / amount of drug in each tablet = 1/0.5 = 2 tablets.
Hence 2 tablets , each containing 0.5 mg lorazepam is to be given each dose per oral.
Lorazepam is a benzodiazepine with anticonvulsant and antianxiety properties. All benzodiazepines act by increasing the frequency of opening of GABA mediated chloride channels.
It can be used in status epilepticus.
