I'm not a driver yet but my doctor had me on clorazepate,it's a real mild valium for a nervous stomach problem that I have.
I already quit taking it because I don't know how long that stuff stays in your system.I just don't want any problems trying to get a job somewhere and I will also save my prescription bottle to prove I wasn't taking it illegally.
Usually urine tests are administered.And being that you took a water soluble (pill),it will go undetected after 3-5 days on a urine analysis.

As far as D.O.T. urine tests is the ONLY acceptable test. They do not accept any other test.

I take Clorazepate for anxiety does anyone know if that's allowed in commercial trucking regulations I can't find the website where they post all the prescriptions you can't take while driving.
Just thought I would bring everyone else up to date with his prior post regarding the same medication.

Just another person trying to beat a drug test.

There are some medications which are prohibited with or without a doctor's prescription.
