Why Doesn T Clonazepam Show Up In A Blood Test Report Despite Its Consumption?
My 39 year old son is taking clonazepam 0.25 mg and his blood test show negative- not taking it. He does take one at am and one in the pm. I give it to him. It make me angry because it appears to the provider that I am not giving my son his medicine. What could be some reasons that it not showing up in his blood test? Thanks
