I took 3, 5 mg. xanax and I have a urine drug test tommorow afternoon. Will I pass? ## Depending on how frequently you've been taking this drug, Xanax (Benzodiazepines) can be detected in your urine for up to 1-6 weeks after your last dose. The average elimination half-life of alprazolam (xanax) has been found to be about 11.2 hours (range: 6.3 to 26.9 hours) in healthy adults. Half-life here means that, say, 11 hours after ingesting Xanax, half of the active amount will be gone. This doesn't mean that 11 hours later, though, the other half will be gone. At that point half of the remainder will be gone, then another half after the same time interval, and so on, until the drug is eliminated from the body. Keep in mind that because everyone is different, these are only intended to...

How for catapres stay in your urine? DOES IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE ON THE AMOUNT YOU TAKE/ ## Ambien contains the active ingredient Zolpidem and Catapres contains the active ingredient Clonidine and neither of them are substances that are tested for in standard drug tests. So, they shouldn't register as anything, because they are not in the classes that are normally tested for, which include Benzodiazepines, Opiates and Amphetamines, among others. Are there any other questions or comments? ## how many days does butabital remain in a person's system for detection in a urine toxicology screen? ## I just want to agree. Catapres (Clonodine) & Ambien (Zolpidem) will not show up on any drug screen. However, if someone were to pass away & a toxicology was done those 2 drugs along w...

If I took two 1mg xanax on Friday and three 500mg vicodin on Saturday and have a urine drug test on Wednesday (tomorrow) will it be clean? ## dID U SNORT THE PILLS OR JUST SWALLOW. IF U SNORTED THEY WILL BE OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM ## I swallowed the xanax and snorted the vicodin and my system was clean before Friday ## For future reference, narcotics, such as the Hydrocodone in Vicodin can be detected for approximately 4 to 5 days, after you last take them. And Benzodiazepines, like the Alprazolam in Xanax, can be detectable for up to 6 weeks, after your last use. There is, however, no way to give a precise time frame, due to the various individuating factors that come into play, such as your metabolism, overall health, activity levels and etc. Are there any questions or comments? ## I took ...

Ive been prescribed Valium and Clonazepam for chronic functional abdominal pain (CFAP) to specifically reduce my tolerance levels for taking 140mg a day of Oycodone (OxyContin 100mg and OxyNorm for B/T Pain) since these formulations are both drugs that are two (2) registered trademark names of benzodiazepines, does a urine analysis just reveal that a patient is taking benzodiazepines? or does it single out the two TradeMark names of Valium and Clonazepam individually as well, or just reveal that the urine sample detects benzodiazapines alone? and the mg amounts of the benzodiazepines? ## valium will stay in your system 21 days I was in a drug treat center and a guy was there with 8000mg of valium in his system. klonipin should clear muck quicker say 8 10 hr ## how long does klonopin sta...

i was diagnosed with panic disorder and given xanax but then changed to klonopin last may of 09 as it has a longer half life and controls anxiety better. now i have to take a drug screen for a new job. just curious and will provide the rx. ## If you have a valid prescription, then there is no need to worry, just provide them with that information, when you go in for the test and be prepared to give them proof, if they ask for it. They can't deny you the use of legally prescribed medications, except for certain jobs, such as being an airplane pilot. And to answer you initial questions, Benzodiazepines can take 5 to 6 days to clear your system. Are there any questions or comments? ## if your script is no good or expired go to the hospital and tell them your having a panic attack and a...

I need to know how long 50 mgs of sumatriptan stays in your system? I have some old one's from a prescription that I had a long time ago and my head was hurting really bad, and I'm afraid that my work may drug test me at anytime, cause that is how they do things. ## This is not a medication that is tested for on standard drug tests, there should also not be an issue, since it has been prescribed for you. Typical drug tests that are approved by the FDA, only test for controlled, or illegal substances, such as narcotic, and benzodiazepines. Is there anything else I can help with?

I took 1mg of Ativan last night to help me sleep.... I have a drug test tomorrow. Will that show up in a urine test? ## Ativan/Lorazepam (Benzodiazepines) can remain detectable in your urine for up to 1-6 weeks after your last dose; a pretty wide time frame in my opinion, but unfortunately it is what it is and will most-likely show up in your urine test if you only had a day's notice. This is not to say that it's possible for it to not show up, but odds are that it will if they are testing for benzos. I hope this helps to answer your question! ## Yes, it most likely will be detected, since it's a Benzodiazepine. They can be detectable in urine for approximately 6 weeks, after last dosing.

I have a damaged liver and was given valium to detox. How long will it last? ## I have a damaged liver and used valium to detox. How long will it stay in my system ## The length of time any drug stays in your system is going to be dependent upon several factors, including the dosage taken, the duration you've been taking it for, your age, weight, diet, whether or not you're taking anything else with it, etc. This is all information your doctor should have on file, but if you're to ask a strangers opinion, all I can do is simply go off of the half life of the drug: According to Benzo.org.uk, "Diazepam (Valium) is one of the most slowly eliminated benzodiazepines. It has a half-life of up to 200 hours, which means that the blood level for each dose you take falls by only o...
