Re: klonopin taper update

I suspect it is, but there's really no way to know for sure. lines up w/ some of what I experienced during a rapid Klonopin taper.

some doctors switch their patients over to an equivalent dose of Valium and taper off that. I think the conversion is clonazepam dosage x 20= diazepam equivalent, but I could be wrong.

As low as your dosage is at this point, I would think Librium might be another option. Librium is less potent than Valium, but if I remember correctly, it also has the long half life and has very pronounced muscle relaxant properties, which would probably help w/ stress and such. Its also somewhat sedating, compared to the higher potency benzodiazepines. I think its comes in 10mgs capsules and 25mgs tablets, but I could be mistaken.

sorry this is happening. some "alternative" health people recommend supplements to ease benzodiazepine tapers. High dose B3, l-theanine, valerian, passion flower, etc. etc. etc.

Hope things get better in your world.
