Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Major withdrawal symptoms can be avoided with a gradual weaning, or tapering, of clonazepam. Medical detox will usually last about 5-7 days until the peak of withdrawal symptoms has passed, and the drug is removed from the body.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
