Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Serapac is Midazolam benzodiazepine. It contains 10 mg of it.
Clonazepam is also a benzodiazepine medicne. 10 mg of Midazolam is equal to 0,7 mg of Clonazepam (exactly 7,5 mg of Midazolam is equal to 0,5 mg of Clonazepam).

Hope this will help. Feel free to ask further questions.
Regards.

Is serapac available in the USA or via mail in Canada?

Hello!

First of all I would like to apologize you as I have provided wrong answer.
Serepac ingredient name is Oxazepam not Midazolam. Sorry for that.
10 mg's of Oxazepam is approximately equal to 0.25 mg's of Clonazepam.
Midazolam is similar to Oxazepam.
It should be available in US under the brand name Serax.

Hope this will help. And once again sorry for my mistake.
Regards.
