Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Serum drug level should be done to know the exact amount of lorazepam in the body.
Usual half life of lorazepam is 8-10 hours.
So it will show in blood report if you do blood test within 10 hours of ingestion.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
