How long does it take for the medication to get out of your system?

Answer 1

THC (found in marijuana) stays in your system for 28 days. Hardcore drugs such as heroin, cocaine/crack cocaine, and methamphetamine only stay in your system for up to 4 days. Drink a lot of white vinegar and cranberry juice.

It depends on what drug you are talking about. Different types of drugs have very different lengths of time that it will show up in your body. You also have to consider the half-life of a drug which, to put it simply, is how long the EFFECTS of that drug will last. So to answer your question more accurately we need to know what drug you are referring to. I will list a few common drugs below along with half-life of the drug and also how long it stays in your system. Keep in mind that this is only a vague approximate as it also depends on the amount of the drug taken and also the frequency. For example, someone who smoked a couple hits of marijuana for the first time is going to expel the drug from their system much more quickly versus a chronic user of marijuana who has smoked every day for years.

Also, there are different kinds of drug tests out there that detect drugs differently. For example: an at home urine drug test that you can buy at the pharmacy will ony detect drugs used as long as a week or two ago where a test that uses hair follicles to detect any substances can go back like 3 months depending on the drug!! The type of test used depends on why you are getting the test in the first place. Tests used prior to employment at your average job are going to use the standard 5-panel urne test. A job at a government agency might use the blood test or hair test. The blood and hair tests are very expensive to have done so your average employer isn't going to pay for something like that.

Remeber this list is only an approximation and does not take into consideration frequency, amount used, metabolism, weight, and tolerance.

• DRUG EFFECTS LAST: STAYS IN BODY FOR:
• Heroin: 1 Hour Approx 72 Hours
• Nicotine: 2 Hours 3-30 days depending on frequency
• Cocaine: 1 Hour Approx 48 Hours
• Oxycontin: 3 to 4.5 hours 2 to 5 days
• Codeine: 4 to 6 hours 2 to 5 days
• Morphine: 3 hours 2 to 4 days
• Crystal Meth: 1 hour 2 to 4 days

Answer 2

That depends upon the half life of the drug, you have consumed. Normally it takes five half lives to get rid of the drug out of your body. But then with modern technology, it is possible to detect the drug after fairly long period, if you want to detect the same.

Answer 3

it depends on its solubility in lipids
