Dr. Pamela Pappas answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

No: Clonazepam has a long half-life -- 19 to 60 hours. This means it may take more than a day, or even more than 2 days, for your body to process it even halfway. If you drink a beer now it will be on top of Clonazepam -- not safe. Please don't. It takes 5 half-lives to eliminate most of 1 Clonazepam dose from your system.

Dr Fowler and another doctor agreed
