Medical Treatment: The medical review officer after getting a positive result from a urine test requested by your employer should request a medical note from your prescribing physician to support the medical need of the medication used. It is not the issue of pass/fail it is the issue of supporting appropriate medical use of the medication.

Not likely: Clonazepam, which is a Benzodiazepine and these can be detectable in a standard urine test up to 2-3 days. The elimination half-life of clonazepam is typically 30 to 40 hours.
