Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Xanas contains clonazepam and elimination half life of it is 30 to 40 hours. A drug needs five elimination half life to get out of body, that means, clonazepam would take 7 to 10 days to move out of body completely. Better to avoid xanax for next few days and it would elimination on its own.

Thanks
