Most doctors or all for that matter will tell you not to drink alcohol with antidepressants!. Alcohol is a depressant so whats the use of taking something for it if you get what I'm saying!.
If it's a special occasion, I don't think two drinks will do anything but I think asking a doctor or pharmacist would be best to make sure!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Klonopin is not an anti-depressant and is not used to treat depression, in fact it is not recommended for use in patients who are depressed!
Klonopin is an anti-seizure med and also used to treat individuals with panic disorder!. Some physicians prescribe it in very low doses in treating chronic insomnia, and it is always accompanied with a warning to avoid alcohol!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You really should not drink when taking klonopin and drinking is also a depressant so you are kind of defeating the purpose of the klonopin!. If I were you I would call the Pharmacy and ask them if its ok to take the medicine!. Hope this helps
