I believe you are referring to “Phenazepam” which is a benzodiazepine (also called “benzo”) psychoactive drug with diazepine’s sedative, hypnotic and sleep-inducing qualities. This drug has been known to cause amnesia, aggression & behavioral disinhibition (lack of social restraint). This benzo works by depressing the central nervous system. Average phenazepam dosages are 0.5 mg 2-3 times daily. The maximum daily dosage must not exceed 10 mg.
Be careful using Phenazepam as severe withdrawal symptoms may occur including restlessness, anxiety, insomnia and convulsions.
Clonazepam, also called Klonopin is another benzo with highly potent muscle relaxant, and anxiolytic properties. it is usualy only prescribed for the type of insomnia where you wake up too early but otherwise sleep well. It has a long half-life which can leed to next day effects.
My NON medical opinion would be that neither of these should be used for insomnia, but if you must, go for the Phenazepam, it will help you to fall asleep and stay asleep better.
Good luck with your withdrawals, if you need someone to talk to, get the number from http://www.stgregorycrt.com non religious, non 12 step, very helpful.

I dont think phenozepam is used in the u.s. klonopin is a long term acting benzodiazepine, and will most likely put you in a permanent stupor especially if youre taking it daily. Best one to use would be ativan or xanax, but you’ve got to be careful with both as they have high addictive potential. A sincere doctor would probably recommend you take seroquel, which is an antipsychotic but also is used for off market use as a hypnotic, and does not have any serious addictive potential.
