You should check their calculations.

0.1 mg x 10 = 1 mg
0.1 x 100 = 10 mg

Yes, Ativan is about 10 times stronger in terms of doses of Valium. They are two different chemicals, but have similar effects. Some people sleep, and in some of the anxiety. I think it's better than reducing the Ativan Valium Valium fear, but it makes you sleep. But both are so similar it probably will not notice the difference.

Yes, what is ativan used in smaller doses. It also has another life profile of kinship and the elimination, to make it a little more useful for certain things.

And ten times more would be 1 mg Ativan = 10 mg Valium, which is what most sources. It is a matter of debate, however, and academic reality for clinical use of drugs.

Lorazepam is Ativan, while Valium diazepam. It is often used for similar things, but not the same drug. So, I'm not sure if "strong" the same things. The comparison of doses ... Provided 0.1g (that what I wanted to write) = 100 mg's. However, when comparing different drugs, we can not really say that a higher dose is automatically a stronger (or better) with a lower dose of another.

Diazepam = Valium

Ativan lorazepam =

Although these drugs are benzodiazepines, of course, vary, and there is no direct comparison of the dose.
Lorazepam works faster than diazepam and has a shorter half-life.
