Cecilia,
I know what you mean! Why can't they agree on a definitive equivalency? For me, I found Klonopin slightly more potent than what I had been taking, which was 15 mg. of Tranxene in the morning, and occasionally 15 mg. in the evenings. I always had rebound anxiety before lunchtime with Tranxene and just toughed it out, but with .5 mg. of Klonopin this morning I feel great and it's already lunchtime.

> I`ve found three different charts on the internet Dr. Bob`s says that 0.5 mg alprazolam is equal to 0.25 mg clonazepam, another that they were equal in potency and a third said that it would take 2 mg clonazepam to equal 0.5 mg alprazolam! I guess it doesn`t make much difference which one you believe, your doctor is going to prescribe according to what he or she believes and that`s that. Cecilia
