I know he has stated that Valium and Xanax are his benzos of choice because they're less likely to incur tolerance - and that he dislikes Ativan for that reason. He never expounded on his hesitancy re: Klonopin .. but he is a little prudent at times (or concerned for his patients' well being, I suppose), and doesn't Klonopin have a reputation for being difficult to come off?I had a much harder time discontinuing Klonopin than Ativan, but if the stuff works, you wouldn't want to come off of it anyway, so withdrawal is not necessarily a relevant consideration.
