Urine Drug Test Methadone

Updated

I was just at my PO. I used methadone six days ago. She sent my ua in to be tested. Do you think it will be positive.I am a think woman and pretty active do you think it will be positive?

Hi scarf,

From what I could gather, Methadone can be detected in your urine for as long as 6-12 days after your last dose; depending on the dosage and frequency of use.

If you're pretty active (exercising at least 3 days a week) it will be out of your system much sooner than if you weren't doing anything. I would've also suggested drinking plenty of fluids to help flush your system out, but I'm sure you already did what you could in the time frame you had.

Since I don't know how often you take this med or how much you used, I can't really formulate an opinion as to your odds for coming up positive.

Could you please post back to let us know how your test went?

i weaned off heroin addiction with liquid methadone;a teaspoon/day dosage and i'm finally free from my heroin addiction.i need to attend my weekly urine test which i've been absent with medical leave certificates this friday.can i go without doubts or insecurities coz i don't want to come out negative for heroin only to be positive for methadone(i got the methadone from an unlicensed source as it difficult to get a prescribtion from a legal medical healthcare provider)

I wanted to thanks you David for replying to my message. well for an update... It is two weeks today and I still haven't heard anything from my PO. I still worry however she said it can take a week or two for the results. So IM still praying! Wish me luck!

@Scarf,

You're certainly welcome! Thanks for even taking the time to post back!

I look forward to seeing how those results turn up. Just try to maintain a positive frame of mind about it and I'm sure the situation will unfold in the best way possible. Worst case scenario, learning from our mistakes/situations makes us even stronger and wiser in the long run. :)

@isgremlin,

Congrats on being free from the addiction!

My personal assumption would have to based on the length on time you've had in between your last dose and your upcoming urine test. However there are a variety of other individual factors as well that help determine how soon you can get it out of your system.

It is very possible and just so you know being active doesn't help! Most cases methadone is in and out of your system in 72 hours, now if your a frequent flyer it can stay in your system for 4-6 weeks. If you on probation my advice is quit using you frequent flyer miles and skip days because it will be positive
