[Li...] Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I was on .5mg of Lorazepam 3 X day ...I (and my Dr) googled the equivalent dose of Diazepam to be 5mg, so I have switched to 3 x day 5 mg of DOAZ. Now i see on different sites it says the equivalent dose of Lorazepam 1mg is 5 mg od DIAZ...which if true means I have upped my intake of Benzo's ?? I actually feel really good on 5mg of DIAZ 3 X day, is this why? ? Where can I find an accurate equivalent drug table It's also the same for Zopiclone which I am on at night: one site says 3.75 gm ZOP is equal to 5mg DIAZ, and other site says 3.75mg ZOP is equal to 10mg od DIAZ I don't know what to think Does anyone know the proper legitimate equivalents?

Guest [ba...] Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Those tables are guidelines, but the exact equivalent dose depends on your individual physiology. It's entirely possible that the traditional 1 to 10 ratio for lorazepam to valium might not be the optimal ratio for you. That could result in your first few cuts being pretty easy.
