In reply to Is Valium more potent than Xanax?, posted by rjlockhart on March 31, 2006, at 10:28:11
I have panic disorder and have found Valium useless for extreme anxiety-Xanax is just the opposite; very effective. If panic is the problem, Xanax is a drug to consider. Look at Remedyfind.com for people's opinion on drugs for panic-Valium isn't even mentioned in the the top 10, and by my experience, for good reason. I've tapered from 4 mg Xanax/day and as long as you take a long time (I took a year), it's fine. But I was able to withdraw from Klonopin and Ativan with basically no discomfort whereas Xanx was managable, but not fun.
