anyone know if you can use Klonopin to get off Xanax?
or has anyone actually done it?

I did with no problem. Just switched over. But, I didn't like the blunting from klonopin so now I'm on valium which doesn't cause it for me. Fondly, Phillipa

valium is probably better since it stays in your body even longer.

how many times a day do you take valium to cover the day?

and taking valium in the morning lasts all day?
i thought valium had to be taken twice if not three times a day to cover the whole day
thanks, chess

It works for me. Ed_uk can probably give you a more detailed explanation why. You can Babble him but I think he's asleep now. He'll see it in the am though. Fondly, Phillipa

found a new pdoc who wants me to do it the other way around. She wants to wean me off the xanax first, then ween me from the Klonopin. Does the sound right to anyone?

I'm so sorry, I guess I was really tired when I wrote the above post! That's exactly what you all were talking about. DUH on me!
