Every benzodiazepine as listed on this site was granted an equivalence factor in comparison with diazepam. Several sources have been used:

  • Handout "Workshop minimale interventiestrategieen en afbouwmethodieken, Papendal 12-03-2003, Zitman, Gorgels, Krispijn
  • The Ashton manual

A warning will be displayed whenever the calculated daily dose exceeds the 'maximum' dose for the targeted benzodiazepine.
