Hi I posted earlier I have been on 1 MG of Kpin for almost 7 weeks.
I have some 10mg valiums.
Should I just jump off or use valium? if so how long for valium? will there be wd using the valium as a taper?
I was suggested to use valium? why is that? Or can I just jump off.. Taking klons for 7 wks
In my experience 7 weeks is long enough with daily use to lead to withdrawal symptoms if discontinued abruptly, although clonazepam has a fairly long half-life in its own right.
If you have diazepam then, by all means, taper instead of going cold turkey. Clonazepam is a potent anxiolytic and anticonvulsant, and abrupt withdrawal brought on strong rebound anxiety/panic and spasticity for me.
How many is "some" 10mg diazepam? I'd say that with 7 weeks of only 1mg, you should probably be fine with 5-10mg to begin with (although most tables would state that 1mg clonazepam = 10mg diazepam), especially as it accumulates slightly with daily use. Depending on how much diazepam you have access to, try to spread it out so you drop your dose by a few milligrams at a time, and not every day.
All things considered it doesn't sound as if you're in for a really bad time, but I'd still recommend tapering with diazepam to going cold turkey.
