That's a pretty strong dose of Klonopin. You most likely would have to take a pretty strong dose of valium to equal things out. Valium with a much longer half life would probably be prefered by your doctor to Xanax but who knows? If you are getting 5mg Klonopin now you may get Xanax. Personally Librium in moderate doses does the trick for me.
