The problem with valium is you're just going from one benzo to another benzo with a similar long half life. But maybe it works for some people. Maybe you can discuss with your doctor a med such as seroquel.
Hey there and welcome to the forum!
What is motivating you to taper off Klonopin? We can't discuss taper schedules on this forum but you MUST taper from this medication to prevent possible seizures. Your doctor should be able to give you more direction here. In my work as a RN I have seen doctor's prescribe Valium or Tegratol to taper off Klonopin to prevent 'status epilepticus' (nonstop seizure). This would depend on the dose and length of use. 2mg is a moderate-high dose and you indeed need have your doctor manage this kind of taper. Klonopin has a long half life, therefore physical withdrawl symptoms are worse than with shorter acting benzos. Keep us posted on how you are doing. Take care.
