Hi all,
I had been using Diazepam 5mg PRN for a few months, probably every other day, I wouldn't say I've got much benzo tolerance, if at all.
I recently was prescribed Clonazepam 2mg PRN. I looked at the equivalence charts and saw that this was equivalent to 20mg Diazepam. I was expecting a strong effect fron the Clonazepam, but 2mg was arguably less effective than 5mg of Diazepam. I can actually "feel" the Diazepam, and while I think the Clonazepam is there, it seems very weak.
Has any one been through something similar? I'm not sure what to make of these equivalence charts now. The Diazepam to Temazepam seemed about accurate, but the Clonazepam seems way weaker than what is claimed in the tables.
Sincerely,
Michael
