It depends...: Have you been taking Ativan as well? Please be aware that Ativan interacts with alcohol just as Klonopin (clonazepam) does. If you truly only took Klonopin (clonazepam) and it was 4 days ago, it would be ok to have an alcoholic drink at this point, just don't have any Klonopin (clonazepam) or Ativan for a period of time after that.

Should be fine: That is a while ago, there may be some Clonazepam still in your system although at this point there would be very little. It should be okay to consume alcohol in moderation at this point. I would not advise taking any Clonazepam and consuming alcohol together simultaneously or in the same day. I would talk with your prescribing physician more about your concerns. Stay safe!
