ghut - lorazepam is the generic name of Ativan. It is a benzodiazepine, a Valium-like drug, only shorter acting. It is addictive in the long-term, but, unless your friend goes seeking them from doctors, he probably won't get addicted on the amount he has found.
Not to get preachy, but the "I found some drugs; let's try them and see what they do" attitude is scary. If these pills had been high blood pressure pills, blood thinners, anti-diabetic meds, etc., your friend could very easily be dead right now. Oh well, I guess it's live and learn. - Cam
