The various benzos exert their anticonvulsant and tranquilizing effects to different degrees. Although 1.5mg clonazepam may be equal to 1.5mg alprazolam for anticonvulsant (i.e. withdrawal) purposes, it takes about 3.0mg alprazolam to give me the same anxiolytic effect as 1.5mg clonazepam.

Same goes with the diazepam. 15mg may be sufficient to prevent a withdrawal off of 1.5mg clonazepam, but it would take about 60 for me to have the same effect I get from the 1.5 clonazepam.
