I have recently moved to a new town and my new doctor is making a change in my medicine.
I have been taking xanax 1 milligram 3 times per day. The new doctor is changing me to Klonopin 1 milligram 3 times per day. I have been on the xanax for 5 years now. I did take Klonopin a long time ago and it worked fine for me but it was several years before having to use the xanax for acute anxiety. Will I have any problems stopping xanax one night and beginning the Klonopin the very next day after taking xanax for 5 years? I am scared that I will experience withdrawl. Should I have a smooth transition? I would appreciate any and all help. I start this is 5 days and my anxiety over changing is causing so much panic that I cannot even calm down enough for my xanax to work. The new doctor is changing me because he feels Klonopin works longer.Thank you so much
