ambien and benzos

[barbi811]

I am just 2 weeks on suboxone now and I have had a hard time adjusting to it, the most difficult part being no sleep and severe anxiety, the doctor finally gave me ambien and after 2 nights of that I finally slept last night, I have been going to meetings along with the out patient program and I have not used any drugs except for a clonopin today, I got it from a friend and was desperate for some relief of this anxiety, I was wondering if ambiens show up as a benzo on the drug test and how long does it take for benzos to leave your system, I am sorry if this is inapropiate, I am trying my hardest. I want to be clean so bad. but got desperate.
thank you.

Ambien will not show up as a benzo, but Klonopin obviously will. Depends on a lot of factors. Could be 3 or 4 days. Possibly over a week for a UA if you are taking a lot and have a slow metabolism. Discuss your anxiety with your doctor.
