My experience is that any of the above are considerably potentiated by alcohol. The literature supports this. In my personal experience, clonazepam is the least potentiated by alcohol, but it still certainly makes a significant impact on the sedation. Be careful. Alcohol and benzo's in general can be a dangerous mix. Drink in moderation or consider reducing your benzo dose. Remember that both clonazepam has a long half life, so even if you were to stop taking it right now, it would still be in your system to a considerable extent on new years eve/day/.

Hope this helps,

Phoenix
