What type of job is it and do you have a prescription for the medication?

Clonazepam is a Benzodiazepine and is usually detectable in a standard urine test for up to 6 weeks, after last dosing.

However, with the exception of only certain jobs, you should just have to inform them that you are taking it under doctor's orders, when you go in for testing.

I don't know if it is just me or if anyone feels like I do but but it seems everytime I have a different doctor or therapist once I tell them what medicines I take daily most all look at me as if I have 2 heads or I get the oh great another addict this makes me so angry.I'm sure we have all heard the saying don't judge a book by its cover, what I wish they would remember is the golden rule treat others as you wish they will treat you,but I;m sure all of us with chronic pain have seen or felt that dissaproval.Yes I have been on meds. for over 20 years but not by my choosing without medicine though I couldn't do the simple things that most take for granted everyday and its mostly those type of people who use medication in such a bad manner by abusing it that our group who truly need them to survive.I know without my pain and mental meds I know I would just give up sorry to say but even with my meds which have been changed I'm never completly out of pain in mind and body but I'm trying to keep my head up as heavyas it is at times.Well just want you all to know you are not the only one who feels this way, heck I just turned 50 in January so hopefully I can try for the other half of whats left even when I have those days I can't do it anymore I stop and think well Karen there is always someone worse off than you and I thank the good lord that I have another day and then I pray for that poor soul that is in more pain than I.

i am with you all the way, my Dr did a u/a on me and found out i was takin klonopin, while i have been seeing a pain Dr. i had a bad surgery in 2001 and i have a rod and 8 screws in my back ,i cant walk and i am only 50 yrs young, and yes, iwent to another Dr. because my Dr who gives me my pain meds wont give me klonopin, nor does he ever ck me out, to see if i have any kind of lumps any where or anything else going on, so i found a Dr for the real stuff and a Dr for pain problems. when i asked my pain Dr for klonopin because they do help me in the pain department he said get this THEY ARE ADDICTING I was floored. what the hell does he think i am getting now? non addive meds NO so i just sat back with my jaw open and then said thank you, well after that i went and found a Dr he did tests on me and found a lump in my breast, where as this other guy would never of sent me to do any of that stuff. so i asked this Dr if he would give me some klonopin because i had a siezure at a store that had those lights that are kinda strobby? i have a problem with lights. also being on computers or game computers to long it is called photo lite sensitivity and he said sure. well that was great. well after 3 yrs of being on 4 mg a day he decided to take a u/a and found i had methadone in me for my pain. he gave me a chance and said that if i go to a pain Dr he would keep prescribing, well i knew i couldnt do that so i kept stalling, anyway he did another u/a and found the klonopin and methadone yet it said valium derivitives. i dont take valium, nor the stuff i saw on the paper work he had sent to him, it was dalmane i have never hear of that drug till i looked it up, so now he is dropping me from the klonopin that was the one thing that got me out of the house daily now i have no clue what to do. they dont use gloves when they take your urine, and they set it on a piece of paper and i sign it, then who touches it from there? it isnt fair that he is not believing me after all these yrs of being on it, i dont know if the klonopin is making derivitives in my body or what is going on, but this is sad, that he would believe a drug test over me, he didnt dissmiss me but why go to a Dr that has no trust in me i dont take anything that he dosent know about, any help here.

They don't use gloves is all I need to know about the doctor and all the reason I don't want to see him. They are standard now. Not because of the crazy fear of AIDS, but at least AIDS got us to this use of gloves. Cross contamination is so easy.

I have to admit, I'm a tad bit confused by your entire story. If you are being given methadone for pain relief, and I'm fully aware that it is a prescribable drug for pain relief, than I understand you have more severe pain, not the mild to moderate that calls for a Vicodin or a Norco. I take Norco (exactly the same as Vicodin but for less ibuprofen, easier on my liver.) I take 1mg of Xanax 3X's daily, and I take a 10mg Ambien at night. I have been on benzo's for a couple of decades now. The Klonapin, after about 2 weeks, was obviously doing nothing for my anxiety so I went back on Xanax, much better for my anxiety and panic attacks. However, speaking only for myself, I have never heard of a Benzo of any type, and I've taken all 4, Ativan, Valium, Xanax and Clonapin (the drug you're referring to) but never once did I take it, nor was I directed to take it, for pain. If something like methadone isn't working, you need to see a pain specialist. You can take this any way you'd like, but I'm surprised any doctor has you on more than one or two low grain benzo's at all since you're taking methadone, unless you're taking methadone to kick an opiate habit.

I must agree that entire diatribe made no sense at all. sometimes folks are confused by the fog of being over medicated and can't properly describe what history they have. It's a form of aphasia . Over medication especially of the benzos often causes such side effects.

Clonazepam is a friggin' legal drug given to thousands. It's just another Valium, Ativan, Xanax, and not as weak as a Librium, but then what is. Thousands are prescribed this. What are you people so worried about. Do you freak out this way about high blood pressure medication?

It's a ridiculous coversation. I never even thought about my taking any of the benzos when looking for a job. They're mostly looking for marijuana, and cocaine. I bet they don't even run that many on real opiates (heroin) although, even legal, I do wonder if given the epidemic if they test for codones. I would imagine if it involves heavy machinery or driving.

LOL...I never heard of too many benzos at one time.

Clonazepam has a long serum half life compared to other benzos. I think it can be found in typical urine screens for at least several days. I would be pretty shocked if anyone hiring would have a problem with that showing up unless it showed up with opiates or alcohol.
