Can Klonopin Be Taken After Alcohol Consumption?
Question: How long do I have to wait before taking my .5 mg of klonopin after drinking
Brief Answer:
Consultation
Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
This depends on how much alcohol you had. You metabolize about 1 drink per hour. I would wait until the alcohol leaves your system entirely before taking your Klonopin. If you had three drinks, I would wait three hours, for example.
