You can not just stop Klonopin. Withdrawal effects may potentiate side efects. Depression may be worse. I had a very difficult time when trying to switch from klonopin to tranxene. It was impossible for me, thus I just tapper it off over a long time.
I have read somewhere that tranxene metabolites to valium, but it is not the same medicine. To compare the dosage go to:
