Does anyone else who takes Lorazepam (as prescribed by a doctor 🤣) get thrown off by these two technical inaccuracies?

  1. When Tim shakes the  Lorazepam bottle, it makes this loud rattle—like a bottle full of hard pills. But in reality, Lorazepam tablets are tiny, super light, and don’t make that kind of sound at all. It’s such a small thing, but it totally took me out of the moment. 

2.  When Tim pilfered a pill at dinner, he grimaced and swallowed it dry, like it’s a difficult, painful thing to do. But Lorazepam is chewable, has no taste, and dissolves in your mouth. You don’t even need water. It’s not like choking down a huge chalky tablet.

Okay, this has been bugging me like crazy.

I get it, it’s TV and pills that rattle around in a bottle help enhance the scene and make better TV. But as someone who actually takes Lorazepam (occasionally!), these technical inaccuracies drive me nuts. Does this kind of thing bother anyone else, or do I just need to calm down and take another Lorazepam?
