One of Dr. Bob's benzo equivalency charts says 0.25 mg clonazepam = 5 mg diazepam, the other says 2 mg clonazepam =10 mg diazepam. I'm going to try switching over to see if the diazepam helps me sleep better; my doctor said the 1.5 mg clonazepam I'm taking would be equivalent to 15 mg diazepam, but according to Dr. Bob's chart the 1.5 mg clonazepam COULD equal anywhere from 7.5 to 30 mg diazepam. I'll find out, I guess. He did say to switch over gradually, substituting just one of my 0.5 mg clonazepam tablets for 5 mg diazepam ones at first, so at least I won't go into massive withdrawal if the 1st chart is correct.
