Anyone with RSD/CRPS have experience with Klonopin (clonazepam) for pain and mus!
Question: I took about 20 mg of Valium per day. I was on a total of 40 mg per day but got weaned off. I have RSD reflex sympathetic dystrophy and talked with my dr. about going off the valium and muscle relaxer to have it replaced with something so I don't have to take 2 meds (muscle relaxer that didn't really help and valium for the same thing but just made the muscle relaxer work a lot better). I did take my first one over 4 hours ago and I still feel great! Does anyone know about the amount of mg for valium is compared to Klonopin even though there isn't valium in it? I also heard that it's taken at bedtime and works for 24 hours. I'm thinking this is so good because I then won't have to take a muscle relaxer every four hours and valium three times a day. Thanks for answers.

I've taken it. It is very similar to valium except it worked far better for me. Here's a link that will give you some good info
