Klonopin is easy to take--1 tab of whatever strength, 2x daily. Can cause depression. Tapers kind of suck because its so potent that each little cut in dosage is actually significant. Shrinks love it. Its not good PRN because it takes forever to kick in.
Valium is good, but docs in the US seem to be wary of it, at least some of them. Ativan is good PRN but probably not the best for daylong sedation all the time. Xanax now comes in xanax xr, which seems like a good option but it doesn't seem too popular. I don't know what's up with that.
