I am on xanax wanting to taper off. To my knowledge it is best to go from xanax to clonazapam to ativan,using lorazapam if needed with the last 2. I'm on 4 mgs a day. I know I have a long way to go and i am working with a dr. Just wondering if I should mention the Serax to her. I know nothing of the half-life.
Thanks,
Wanting a soft detox

im only speaking about what i have read online i have been on valium ativan klonopin and temazapam i believe that serax is acctually stronger than everything i just named except xanax i think your origional plan is the way to go i take 6mg of xanax myself right now and when i plan to tapper off im going to go from xanax to klonopin then valium and then stop there its difficult to find a stright answer about these benzodiazapines but one thing is for sure xanax is the strongest any other one you step down to is a positive step
