In reply to Can't substitute Xanax with Klonopin at tapering?, posted by Kristel on October 26, 2004, at 13:37:44
Yes, you can taper xanax with klonopin. You may experience some withdrawal, but it probably won't be very severe at all. Do give you an idea of my past situations, I was tapered off xanax 5mg/day using Ativan in only 5 days! I suffered some pretty high anxiety/irritability and depression doing it like that but I had no choice because I had been hospitalized. Valium would be better IMHO, as it lasts even longer than klonopin.
Hope that gave you a little hope.
