Hi
>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.
Xanax is highly potent. Valium is not. You'd probably need 40-80mg Valium to substitute for 4mg Xanax.
Most people who post on remedy find are Americans. Most Americans have either never been prescribed Valium or have only taken it MANY years ago. Inevitably, it will not be in the top 10.
Regards
Ed
