>Have you ever tried chlordiazepoxide (Librium)?
No...
>Chlordiazepoxide is easier to taper than most benzos (similar to diazepam).
Thats seems a very good advantage.
>and so your doc may be more comfortable prescribing it.
Thats good to know. :-)
>Chlordiazepoxide is not a good PRN benzo, it doesn't 'kick in' as quickly as Xanax or Valium. It is, however, a logical choice if a benzo is to be taken daily for several weeks or more.
In some respects I think I could benefit from chlordiazepoxide. I think though, because I really want to avoid using a benzo daily, my first choice is diazepam, more so because of the PRN advantage and together with the long half-life, i'm hoping i'll only need to take it 2-3 days a week max. Guess I won't know till I try, but if valium doesn't work out too well, perhaps Librium when be my next choice. I really want to stay with as low dosage and weakest benzo's at all costs. I think my anxiety although servere at times, is mild other times, so just to fade out the unpleasent anxiety when needed will be a god send.
Thanks for the info :-)
