How Long Does Klonopin Stay In The System?

Been on the methadone clinic for a couple years now and despite the stigma it s the only thing that s worked. Full time employment,have a family, just bought our first home. I have all my take homes allowed from the methadone clinic because I ve passed my saliva swabs for years. Unfortunately with work, and a baby and no sleep I took 3 mgs. of klonopin and regret it. I got a swab saliva test 90 hrs. later and am anxious if I will pass.

Hello,

The half-life of the drug is 30-40 hours. means (2-3half life's) amount of drug excreted in 90 hours is 50%+25%+12.5%=87.5%.

There's will be less chance to identify. I just calculated according to half life's but it may vary from the amount of drug you take, how obese your, metabolic capacity etc.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
