hello and thank you for sending the question.
Just to be clear this service does not replace direct medical instructions and treatment recommendations which are provided by her primary care physician.
Lorazepam can likely be taking safely with Citalopram without significant side effects or problems. Of course we would recommend this under the supervision of your primary care physician.
