How Long Does Klonopin Stay In Body?

It's been a year since my doctor weaned me off my klonopin. I took one 1mg around 9 pm. I was wondering how long this will stay in saliva? Also does it depend on the person how long its in the system? Greatly appreciate your time and help.

i understand your concern
klonopin duration of action is around 8 hours
but with frequent dosages it might be detectable in the saliva for upto 33 hours. So bottom line is, how long will this medication stay in the saliva largely depends on your dosing frequency.

Considering the fact that you have been weaned off the medication since a year, it is highly unlikely that it can be detected in your saliva.

Take Care!
