I took Klonopin for 3 nights at 0.5mg. I stopped almost 72 hours ago. When will the slight withdrawal symptoms subside and when can I safely consume a glass of wine?

Hello,
Please specify what withdrawals you are experiencing, everyone is different so, although you took it for a short period of time and the dose was low, as I mentioned everyone reacts differently, I have been on Klonopin (clonazepam) for over 25 years, and did discontinued it once, when I was on 1mg when I frist started taking it and took it for a couple of years, stopped taking it cold turkey and the withdrawals lasted for me for 2 weeks, so again, clonazepam has a long half-life and benzodiazepines are of a drug class which is complicated.
Clonazepam
"Excretion: The elimination half-life of clonazepam is around 30 to 40 hours. Clonazepam's major metabolite, 7-amino-clonazepam, is excreted mainly in the urine."
