Benzo question for switching from Valium 10mg a day to Xanax.

[marsnd]

Will the transition be really rough? I know that Diazepam ( generic Valium) has a stronger half life, and effects the brain with different properties than the fast acting benzo xanax. I've been on both at different times in my life. I've never made this transition though. I was on clonopin, and than put on valium, now transitioning to xanax here in a couple days. Just trying to see if anyone has done this before themselves, and how their experience was. I appreciate the feedback.

You will be fine Valium is a cousin drug to Klonopin it should be a smooth transition as long as your getting 10's

i've never gone from one of those meds to the other, but i've used both. and i think you'll be ok. it should be smooth.

Ive used both and you should be fine imo. Just be aware that xanax doesent last nearly as long as valium
