How Long Does Cocaine Stay in Your System? Benzoylecgonine Drug Detection Test
Cocaine becomes detectable within 2 to 3 hours of its intake in our body, and may be seen till around 3 days. So, its clearance takes around 72 hours, though it depends upon many factors. The elimination time may be much long if the amount consumed is heavy or you’re a frequent user.
Benzoylecgonine is the main metabolite of cocaine. It is also its signature metabolite. The presence of this metabolite is almost a certain indication that a person has consumed the drug. Therefore, in cocaine users, benzoylecgonine testing in urine is commoner than testing of cocaine itself.
Benzoylecgonine may be visible in your system longer than cocaine itself.
Factor Affecting Time Taken For Drug Clearance
- The amount of drug taken
- The purity or quality of drug consumed
- How frequently or regularly you are taking it
- Individual body weight and height
- Level of physical activities
- Eating and drinking habits
- Your overall rate of metabolism
- Condition of your vital organs, particularly the liver and kidneys.
When a person takes cocaine (chemically benzoylmethylecgonine), it circulates in blood to reach all body organs. It reaches the liver to get metabolized and gets converted into a metabolite called, benzoylecgonine. The metabolite is, finally, excreted out in urine via the kidneys.
Cocaine Elimination From Your System
Cocaine elimination starts as soon as it enters the blood stream. The chemical is recognized as hazardous by our live, which quickly breaks it down into smaller metabolites.
If the dose taken is very small and you are one time user of the drug, you may get rid of it in less than 12 hours. However, if the dose is heavy, it may take about 72 hours. After this period it is usually not detected in urine.
However, there is an exception. If a large quantity of alcohol has also been consumed with cocaine, it takes even longer to eliminate- 5 days approximately.
Cocaine And Alcohol- A Deadly Combination
It is common among users to drink heavy while they use cocaine. This Combination potentiate the effects of cocaine. Toxicity of the drug is increased and effects last much long.
Liver metabolizes the two chemicals in combination, to give out Cocaethylene as a metabolite. This chemical is very difficult to eliminate from the body. It stays much long than cocaine and its metabolites.
For a one time user of the drug, who has also taken alcohol, it may take 5 days, as opposed to 3 days for cocaine alone, to cleanse the body enough to pass a urine test.
Coke Metabolite – Benzoylecgonine
Benzoylecgonine takes longer to get eliminated than cocaine. Even if the amount of cocaine was very less, minimum time for it to get eliminated is 4-5 days.
In case of heavy use, it may take as long as 10 days. If you are a regular user, even if you take little amounts, elimination time is around 20 days. This happens because when the drug is used frequently, a portion of it gets stored in the fatty tissues of our body. This stored drug is very difficult to clear off.
Again, if alcohol is also being taken along, then around 25 days or even a month are required for complete elimination of the drug.
Dos To Speed Up Cocaine Clearance
- Drink Plenty of water. This would help your kidneys filter out the toxins more efficiently.
- Stay physically active. This helps you sweat out and also increases the baseline metabolic rate. Both these factors would help in speedy cleansing.
- Include fresh fruits and vegetables in each your daily meals. They work are excellent detoxifiers.
Don’ts That Delay Cocaine Clearance
- Abstain from alcohol, while you’re cleansing yourself off the drug.
- Limit intakes of caffeine, this means avoiding excess tea, coffee and caffeinated soft drinks. These chemicals interfere with the breakdown of the drug in the liver, delaying its clearance.
- Avoid fatty food stuff, junk food, processed foods, chips etc. This is to avoid any extra load over your liver and let it concentrate on cocaine excretion more efficiently.
- Avoid any other drug or pills you’re taking, unless prescribed for some medical illness.
Threshold Value for Detection
Usage is detected by screening for Benzoylecgonine. A threshold level set at 150 ng/mL is used by most labs.
More precise testing may set the cut-off is set at 100 ng/mL.
Half Life
Around 30 to 40% of cocaine or crack is metabolized by enzymes in the liver to form ecgonine methyl ester. Another 30 to 40% is hydrolyzed spontaneously without enzymes to form benzoylecgonine.
Both of them are water soluble compounds and are active. While cocaine has a half life of 1 hour, benzoylecgonine has a half life of 6 hours.
Types of Drug Screening
Saliva test- Cocaine is detectable in saliva after 5 to 10 minutes of taking the drug. It may be detected in saliva till 2 to 4 days.
Urine test- Detectable after 2 to 5 hours of use, till a period of 3 to 4 days.
Blood testing is more specific. The drug is detected after 5 to 6 hours till around 5 to 7 days or even more.
Hair test- The drug starts showing in hair after 5 to 7 days till around 80 to 90 days.
Urine testing is most popular because it is painless, easy and inexpensive. Home kits available in the market are also based on urine testing.
Why Do Chronic Users Take Longer To Cleanse?
In long-term or regular users, the drug is stored in the fatty tissues, especially that of the liver and subcutaneous fat that we have under our skin. After each use, a fraction of the drug consumed is stored, adding up to the stock each time.
This stored drug is released on a continuous basis into the blood stream. So the user is detected positive even if he hasn’t taken the drug for some time.
Total cleansing of the user may take as long as 5 to 6 months, after which he may be called drug-free.
False Positive Test Results
People often complain of positive results with urine drug testing for cocaine, when they have not taken this drug at all.
This is certainly possible. False positives do occur.
Firstly, it is not cocaine itself that is screened in urine. Actually it gets out of urine in as little as 12 hours, so its testing is not that reliable.
The metabolite of cocaine, benzoylecgonine, is screened by most of the testing labs. This shows in urine till 3 to 5 days, or even a month if the dose intake was heavy.
It’s a fingerprint metabolite of cocaine. No other drug or prescription medicine produces exactly the same metabolite as benzoylecgonine.
However, certain medicines produce metabolites that are similar in structure. So labs with cruder instruments may label you as ‘positive’, if you are consuming those medications.
Some of the medications that may produce false positive test results include local anesthetics that are used by dentists, including lidocaine, novocain and tonic water.
Apart from these, patients with chronic liver or kidney diseases may also show altered results.
What to Do If You Get a False Positive Result?
If you’re sure that you don’t have cocaine in your system, immediately request for a confirmation test.
The standard EMIT test used by most labs may be confirmed by GC/MS (gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry) test. This detects the benzoylecgonine structure with more specificity, screening out similar looking compounds.
I might be applying for a driving job. I took a small amount of cocaine with alcohol 3 weeks ago. Will a small amount of cocaine 0.3g with less than 5% purity show up in a hair test? And will all the precautions advised make any difference for hair test? Thanks.
Hair test may show each and every speck of the drug taken. It would be safer to shave off your head, or trim your hair as much as possible.
I was a heavy cocaine user (daily a few lines) and only have 1 alcohol beverage at night after work. I was using because the pain meds I was on for my neuropathy wasn’t helping and I had no motivation to do anything. I haven’t used in about 1 month but I still have 1 drink nightly. I’m diabetic insulin dependent and diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease. I have a drug test tomorrow. Will I be able to pass that?
Difficult to cleanse yourself so quick.
Hi! I have a urine drug screen tomorrow at 2pm. I have smoked about 4 hits of crack on maybe 4 occasions this month. The last time I smoked any was 7 days ago and I passed my drug test last month. I bought a detox drink and I’m drinking plenty of water. I don’t drink alcohol but I do drink monsters (caffeine). I am 5’3 120 pounds. What are the odds I pass my test? Thanks so much and what if anything can I do to help pass? Also, are my chances bigger of passing if I have a bladder full of water before I pee? Thanks.
You have 7 days in hand. If you continue observing all precautions mentioned above, you have fair chances of passing the test.
Keep drinking plenty of water. Have vegetables and fruit juices with your meals. Stay physically active.
Having a bladder full before you give your sample urine may help. This is because it dilutes the urine sample.
Thank you so so much for a speedy response. I’ll post results later. Wish me luck.
All the best!
Hello, I’m 30 years of age, 5’9, 210lbs. I used cocaine on may 26. It was only a small line less than 0.25 gram. I had a hair test done on July 25. I’ve cut my hair at least twice in that period of time. Approximately 60 days before the test was performed. My hair length was about 3/4 in. when sample was cut. What are my chances of passing the test? Please help me out here. It was a stupid one time mistake. This will determine the decision of a custody battle.
Since the test is already done, we can just wish you luck!
It is difficult to predict the results of the test. Hair test are very specific and show every speck of drug taken till 3 months of hair growth.
However, since that was a one time use of the drug, there are chances you may pass.
So, will the fact that I had my hair cut short twice before the test not help my chances?
Cutting the hair would help. This definitely increases your chances of passing the test.
Just got the call from the testing facility. I PASSED!!!! I just wanted to say thanks for your replies and words of encouragement. It means a lot.
You are welcome!
Hi,
I would like to know what my chances are for passing a random urine drug test that I had to do on Friday morning 08/15/2014 for my employer.
Here’s the details: I was out partying with a co-worker on Wednesday 08/06/14. I ended up doing 2 lines of cocaine that night. Both lines were approximately 1.5 – 2 inches long. The first line was snorted around 10-11:00pm on Wednesday night 08/06/14, and the second was snorted on Thursday morning 08/07/14 around 12-1:00am. I am a first time user, and I was drinking some Bacardi/Coca Cola that same night. I am 5’7″ approximately 150lbs. I drink plenty of water on a daily basis, take vitamins, but I’ve also been taking 1-2 shots of 40% liquor every night since the night that I did cocaine, up until the night before my test. Hopefully I can get answer before my results come in. Thanks!
Taking alcohol is the only deterrent in your case.
Still, since you are a one time user, you have fair chances of passing the test.
Thanks Doc. Makes me feel a little better. I’ll update this post once I get the results back.
Hey Doc-
I truly value and greatly appreciate the chance to ask you with a question.
I did a little cocaine at a party about 32 days ago, about .4 g, and it is my only time doing it in the past year. I always have a shaved head (half inch on top faded down to 0) and have cut my (DARK) hair like this twice since.
What are my chances of passing a hair test this week?
The drug may show up in the hair test.
Shaving your head just before the test may help.
If I sniffed coke last Saturday night and drank alcohol with it, how long will for the metabolite Benzoylecgonine and Cocaethylene or w.e its called to be clear out of my system? I had a urine test 2 days ago which was 11 days from my last use and it was just a one time use. In total I took about 6 key bumps.
You are likely to pass the urine test,
The drug and its metabolites take around 5 to 7 days to get out of the system, enough to not show up in the urine test.
However, consuming alcohol during the cleansing time window would retard the excretion of the drug and its metabolites.
Thanks for your advice. My results came back negative today (: . Theres no trick to passing a urine test but to eat healthy and stay away from caffeine (coffee), soda, alcohol and cigarettes because all these things make your metabolism go slow. I am 5’6 and weight 180 and I barely exercise. Say no to Cocaine.
I did 6 grams Friday. Took a urine screen today. It was sent to lab. I drank tons of water, threw out the last 5 days. Also took a home test which had a faint line on it. Do you think I’ll pass the test?
You have fair chances of passing the test. Just keep sticking to all precautions for detoxification.
Hi Doctor. I did about 2 grams of cocaine with 5 beers Friday, the 29th into Early Saturday morning. Then a couple big bottles of wine Saturday – Monday. (Birthday) I have a cocaine metabolite urine test on September 10th, any chance I could pass? 40yrs old 140 5’3″ healthy lifestyle. This was a one time binge. Not the norm. I have had about 3 coffee’s since (didn’t realize it was a factor) I drink plenty of water, fruits, veggies. Thanks for your help.
Since this was a one time binge, you have fair chances of passing the test. Just be aggressive in taking all precautions for detoxification.
No alcohol or any other stimulant. Plenty of fruits, veggies in your meals. Lots of water and adequate physical activities.
Thanks for your quick response. The word Fair is not what I wanted to hear. Well it’s never worth it!!! Good person making a bad choice.
I did a tiny bit of coke only one line on Wednesday night & I have a drug test Tuesday at 3 urine test. Do you think I’ll pass? What do I eat or drink so the process can be faster & leave my body?
You have almost a week for cleansing. This gives to a good chance to pass.
Detoxify your body. The best way is to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Abstain from alcohol and limit to tea and coffee.
Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables in each of your meal. Stay active throughout the day.
Hi, I took 2 small lines (.1-.2 max) through Saturday night (12 AM) to Sunday Morning (8AM). Never used cocaine before. I took a test for Probation today (Thursday, 11:30 AM). I did take the cocaine with alcohol but stopped drinking at 3AM Sunday. Haven’t a drink and only a diet coke or two since, the rest water, but not excessively. I took 3 “easy@home” drug tests over a 12 hour span before the probation test. Each test came back negative with bold lines for cocaine. They say 99% accurate and use the same technology as the labs and are FDA approved. My question is, do these home kits test for the metabolite? And do you think if the lab tested for the metabolite, that I would pass? Thanks.
Also, how much longer does Cocaethylene stay in the body than the main metabolite?
You are likely to pass.
All home kits do not test the metabolite. However, time period till Thursday is likely to be enough for detoxification.
I licked very very little cocaine and I have a drug test in a few hours. Will I pass?
Unlikely to pass. Few hours is a very short time window for cleansing. Still, keep drinking plenty of water.
Hi I done under 1 gram of cocaine 27 days ago and I have urine test in 2. Days I’m healthy and I have been drinking lots of water eating veg and drinking cranberry juice and green tea will it be out my system it’s a military drug test it was a mistake and will never happen again
Your post is really helpful but it lacks references to medical studies. Is it possible for you to cite or give me some information related specially to the part where you say that it may take more than 10 days to completely eliminate the benzoylecgonine from the system. Maybe link the research or give me the name and authors. I have being looking for this info for a while and haven’t been able to find the medical studies to back up a motion to the court.
There are several studies to support the information. You’ll have to search them at-
http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=benzoylecgonine+elimination+time
You’ll find many authority papers in the results.
Good day,
I am glad I stumbled upon this post. Your information is very useful.
I snorted about a .5 grams on (12th sept) Friday night and have a 5 panel drug test to take Saturday (20th sept ).
my conditions : 1. never did coke for this year
2. I’m 21 years, 150lbs, 6 ft
3. moderately active, gym 3-5 times a week and run once a week .
What do you think my chances are if they test for cocaine and if they test for the metabolite benzylecgonine?
For both urine and a blood test.
I forgot to add I was drinking a lot of alcohol over the weekend itself.
Alright.
If you take all precautions, as mentioned above (no alcohol, lots of fruits and vegetables, limited tea/ coffee, plenty of water), you have fair chances of passing the urine test.
As for the blood test, the results are difficult to predict. However, aggressive detoxification would definitely increase your chance.
I did a key bump and a line on Saturday, a small line on Friday, and a 2 small lines the weekend prior. Before that, I would take an occasional key bump here and there at the bar.
How long would it take before I could conceivably pass a urine test? I don’t know when it will occur and I also have synthetic urine on hand for the period of time in between no and not being detected.
If you take all precautions, like complete abstinence from the drug and alcoholic beverages, you may be able to clean yourself (just enough to clear the urine test) in 15 to 20 days.
Do drink a lot of water. Consume plenty of fruits and vegetables in your meals. They are the best detoxifiers.
I am going for test in my hair. I have been clean for 6 months. I am not a big drinker. I had two wine bottles about a month ago. I am doing a lot of excercises, 25 mins day. So, will I pass the test. I smoke weed 6 months ago, but not a lot.
If you are clean since six months, you are likely to pass the hair test.
Just trim down your hair as small as possible, so that the sample taken is fresh and free from the drug. The older the hair, more are the chances that it contains the drug.
I did some cocaine last weekend about 2-2.5 grams over 2 days with alcohol, and I have a urine test in 19 days, and the last time I consumed it was about a month ago before that. I am trying to drink lots of water and eat fruit. I am 5’10 about 175, and I am wondering if I will pass or if I should try to delay it as long as possible. Thank you very much.
You have a fair chance of passing the test.
Just keep taking all precautions during these 19 days. Drink plenty of water. Include lots of fruits and vegetables in your diet.
Avoid alcohol, tea or coffee.
I am mostly worried about the benzoylecgonine and if it will be detoxed by then.
If you are aggressive in detoxifying your system by taking all above mentioned precautions, the metabolite is likely to get eliminated.
I did 3 to 4 grams over a 48 hour period. I drank alcohol the whole time. I stopped on Sunday at about 8AM (10/19), since then I went to the sauna on Sunday. I have worked out cardio based weight training for 1.5 hours Monday and Tuesday followed by 25 minutes of sauna. Each day, I have consumed 2 gallons of water and no caffeine or alcohol.
I am 5’6″ and I weigh 155 with very low body fat. I plan on working out for the rest of the week. I have a test on (10/29). Will I pass?
Also, is cardio or is weight training a better way to speed benzoylecognine elimination?
You have good chances of passing the test.
Exercises of any type would mobilize the drug. You may do cardio, walking, swimming, aerobics or any other form.
Thank you Buddy MD –
Last question. I just took a urine home test with a 300ng/mL cutoff and the negative line was moderately faint, but there. The only problem is I think my test may be on Monday (10/27).
I will continue my workout routines. Do you think I’ll be okay?
Your have a fair chance of passing the test.
I’m 26 years old, 270lb. I use cocaine and in 7 days I have drug test. Do you think that I will become clean in those 7 days?
You need to be very aggressive about taking all precautionary steps for cleaning. Then only, you’ll have a chance.
Drink plenty of water. Avoid alcohol, tea, coffee and other stimulants. Include lots of fruits and vegetables in your daily diet. They are the best detoxifiers.
Hello!
I used crack heavily for around 8 months. I have been completely clean for more than 5 years. I will be having an extensive physical test for a job I’m applying and my concern is that there will be any trace of it in my lungs, liver or heart. Do you think I am at risk of my drug use to show in my physical after all these years? If so, is there anything I can do to try to correct it and pass my test? They won’t do hair follicle test, but I’m scared that my physical will give away my past drug use.
You are not at any risk. All chances that you’ll pass the test.
It is very difficult to detect drug abuse done 5 years back.

If a person smoked a ten dollar piece of crack cocaine on Friday, will my saliva test be clean on a Tuesday or is 60 hours enough time?
Can I be clean in 60 hours?
If I smoked a dime piece of crack on Friday, took saliva test Tuesday? Need to know as soon as possible. Thanks
Your question has been answered here.
If this was a one time use of the drug and you have been aggressive in detoxifying your body during these 60 hours, you may pass.
However, if you are a chronic user of the drug, it is difficult to detoxify yourself in 60 hours.
I’m not a chronic user, but I did smoke before. Then I smoked a 20 piece that on Monday. Will I have a chance of being clean?
I passed. Won’t do that any more. Thanks.
Great decision! Happy for that!
I just hit a crack pipe for the first time in 40 days. How soon before it is detected in my system, if I urinate within an hour after smoking it can it be detected?
Detectable in urine after 2 to 5 hours of use, till a period of 3 to 4 days. Read above in details.
I have sniffed .5 of coke on a Friday evening. I get drug tested on the Tuesday. Will I pass?
Urine test.
If you are a regular user of the drug, detoxifying so early is difficult.
However, if this was a one time use of the drug, you have chances to pass. Keep taking all precautions, read above.
Thursday and Friday and Saturday, I did coke. What can I do if tested on Wednesday?
Though you have a very small time window, detoxification is still possible.
Take all precautions. Abstain from alcohol. Limit your intake of tea and coffee. Let water be your beverage each time. Drink plenty of it.
Eat lots of fruits and vegetables in each of your diet.
I kissed and has sex with a girl who had just done cocaine. I had a urine test the next day. Would that show up?
If she had cocaine specks in her mouth that may have entered yours while kissing, the drug may have entered your system.
However, there are more chances that you’ll be tested clean.
If I didn’t feel numbness in my mouth. Would that be a better sign that none got in my system?
This is not a sure sign. It may be misleading.
I didn’t do any drugs my job test me and said I have cocaine in my system. It was a hair test. What should I do?
Hair test are very precise. If it’s showing you positive, may be you took the drug unknowingly. May be from contaminated utensils etc.
I did about .4G of coke Friday night by snoring it. I had 3 beers and a few shots. I have a drug test for probation on Monday. Do I have a good chance of passing? I don’t do it much maybe 4 times in the past 6 months.
Since you have only 3 days, you need to be aggressive about detoxification. You may have a chance to pass the test.
Drink plenty of water. Abstain from alcohol. Avoid tea and coffee.
Read more on the topic above.
I have taken many drug tests this year and have passed every one. I have never done any type of illegal drug in my life. Last week I took another drug test and it came back positive for cocaine. I took a saliva test. I was chewing gum at the time I don’t know if that has anything to do with the test. What could cause this test to come back positive for cocaine if I never did it?
May be the chewing gum, may be shared utensils with a drug user. There’s likely to be drug contamination from some source.
This is my third time trying to ask this question. My friend is 7 months pregnant and she’s a regular user of smoking crack. She wants to know what she can do or if she even have any chances of getting it out of her and the baby’s system.
Since she has been a regular user of the drug, her body and her baby’s body is fully contaminated with the drug.
The fatty tissues in the body tend to catch and store the drug in them. This stored drug is difficult to wash off. It is released into the blood stream on a slow basis, to give a constant level of the drug, even if it’s not being taken.
Ask her to abstain completely from the drug. Also, no alcohol, beer to be taken.
She’ll take around 2 to 3 months to become clean. She has to be very aggressive in detoxification, if she desires to be clean by labor.
She needs to take plenty of fruits and vegetables in her diet. Avoid tea and coffee. Drink plenty of water.
Read here on effects of cocaine on pregnancy.
I don’t use cocaine and I am testing positive for it but the dentist inject me with lidocaine twice to clean my teeth plus I went to the knee doctor and they injected me with lidocaine into my knee because I have arthritis in it. But I’m not testing positive in my urine test and positive in my hair follicle. Could this be why my test is positive for cocaine, false positive for cocaine.
The metabolite of lidocaine resembles that of cocaine, but it is not the same. The results would definitely depend upon the precision of the lab who is testing.
May be you took something, drinks or utensils, contaminated with cocaine.
On a Wednesday night after consuming lots of alcohol, I did one line of coke and have to take a urine test on Thursday, 7 days later. I haven’t done cocaine in like 7 years. I drank some water. Will I be clear on the test? Please tell me soon, I have the test tomorrow morning! Thanks.
You are very likely to be clean.
I’m not a cocaine user but I kissed a random guy who was smoking cocaine (French kiss) which lasted for a while. I could smell the cocaine in his mouth. Do you think I can test positive after 2 days. I never smoke cocaine and I never used it in any way just this when I made out with this guy. Please help.
Yes, you can test positive for cocaine. The drug is likely to have got into your mouth, and into your blood stream too.
Based on the above comments I have reason to be worried about some up and coming tests. Do masking solutions such as QCarbo work for cocaine users?
You can’t rely upon them.
So what are the best foods for detox?
Food stuff rich in vitamins (like niacin, riboflavin). These would include all seasonal fruits and vegetables.
OK, so I was gambling that I wouldn’t be tested or, that the head shop solutions weren’t reliable, for my initial interview assessment for the DWI SATOP program (otherwise known as SROP; serious repeat offenders program) for 3rd DWI offenders. That didn’t go so well. I last used on Fri 11/7 and gave a urine sample today, Mon 11/10. It wasn’t a rapid, they sent it of to a pee-pee specialist. I’ll find out in a few days if I passed but (since this site has informed me that most tests search for Benzoylecgonine). I’m not counting on it. It’s OK, the counselor said they don’t hold the initial drug screen against you, they just want to see that your contaminants are decreasing in levels. I’ll keep you updated when I get the results. My next test is hopefully an employment test for Friday 11/14 (which means a full week for detox)! I had a few glasses of wine after meeting with the SROP counselor tonight and bought a cleansing solution at the local head shop for $35. I’ll keep that handy for the pre-employment drop. I’m going to follow all Dr recommendations from here on out. Niacin and Riboflavin here I come! Thanks a million for the advice, doc! Stay tuned for more updates.
Thanks for the updates!
I did about 5 grams over the weekend of cocaine snorted did the last .8 on 11/9. My drug test urine is on 11/17. Will I pass?
Take all precautions for cleansing your body, as mentioned above. You have a fair chance of passing the test.
I’m not a chronic user and I weigh 210 and 5’9.
Alright.
I had about 1 gram of cocaine on the 5th October, then on the 25th I had about .5 of a gram. I had a urine test on the 10th of November. Do you think I will pass? I’m 6,2 and 107kg, go the the gym daily and drink plenty of fluids but I drink energy drinks and beer a couple of times a week.
You have good chances of passing the test.
I had 1.5 grams of cocaine on 11/10/14 and like 6 or 7 beers the last time I have done cocaine was 10/6/13 so I have been clean for well over a year. I am currently on vacation from my job but we get random tests. Should I be clean when I return to work on 12/1/14?
Well yes, you are likely to be clean, if you don’t take any more of the drug now.
O believe me I’m not lol but since I’ve been clean for a year this one time use would be as if I’ve only have done it once and that it won’t store in my body like as if I were a chronic user. I’m also 26 years old if that helps.
If it’s a one time use, you have a fair chance of passing the test.
I have been drinking water like crazy and taking multi-vitamins and anti-oxidants and blending fruit and vegetables together in the blender for to drink that too.
These would help a great deal in detoxifying you.
Is the first check 12 panel home test reliable? I tested myself Wednesday, 8 days after I did cocaine and the results came back negative (strong red lines across the board for both control and drug). And I called and asked if it tested for Benzoylecgonine. The threshold for the cocaine section is 300 nano grams/ml
They said that their test does test for Benzoylecgonine.
If your under the 300ng threshold for Benzoylecgonine, are you also most likely under the threshold for Cocaethylene since it has a half life of 2.5 hrs which is much shorter then Benzoylecgonine with 6 hrs.
Yes, your are likely to be under the threshold values for this chemical also.
The results of the home test can be relied upon.
OK thank you, so if I tested negative Wednesday on day 8 and I took another one this morning and tested negative again, is it smart for me to drink today ( 3 am would have been 12 days since last use). I haven’t drank since use over 12 days and I’m going to a football game and I still have off till December 1st. Do you believe it is unwise if I drink today?
All I’ve been doing is drinking a gallon and a half of water a day and eating vegetables and fruits and blending vegetables and fruits in a 72oz blender and drinking that too. I would only drink today and then continue this regiment until my next test which could be any day after Dec 1.
It’s alright to drink just once.
Also, again last use was the first and last time I’ve used in well over a year and my first and last time ever again, can’t deal with the stress.
Drink what?
I did three grams of cocaine last line about 3am Nov 16th. In 8 days the 24th I have a urine screen, not the metabolite screen. Will the cocaine show in my urine? I’m healthy work out, lots of water? What do you think?
If they are screening cocaine, not the metabolite, you’re likely to pass the test.
Thank you, well it’s one of the on the spot tests, not sent to the lab, I am only assuming those do not test the metabolite, am I correct?
Well, you may be wrong! Most of the tests now check the metabolite, and not cocaine.
These test are easily done, however, lab facility is required.
If it’s the instant test, the one that shows results immediately, do these tests test for metabolites?
Maybe they check cocaine, it’s difficult to be sure.
Thanks again for your help. It is not sent to the lab. Are the lab tests the only ones that can detect a metabolite?
Most of the modern set ups now check the metabolite.
However, direct cocaine testing is still done.
Thanks again, I’ve been super aggressive with water and leafy greens, do you think the metabolites will show up in the given time, 8 days clean?
You are very likely to be clean, both for cocaine and its metabolite.
On Tuesday the 11 at 9:00pm, I smoked 60 dollars of some weak cut up crack with two beers. Done by 11pm. Someone told my boss on Tuesday the following week so on Tuesday at 4pm my boss has a guy waiting on me to take a suspicion of coke pee test. I am pretty sure it’s a dot grade test. I never expected it and never prepared. Do you have a percentage of pass or fail based on your experience. Should I be looking for another job or do I stand a chance of flying in under the radar.
You have half the probability in your favor.
50/50 chance? I guess if they believe this guy then they may try a hair test in a week so they are going to get me one way or another. If I do pass. Guessing, maybe because I had the test at 5ish in the afternoon and has urinated several times during the day and an hour before I tested my chances will be better. If I get off of this I’m never doing it again. Lesson learned. I have too much at stake.
Hair tests are very specific. They can potentially detect every speck of drug taken during the last 3 months.
You may have to shave off your hair!
Shameless…know your rights. Your boss can’t send you unless he witnesses’ you himself. That’s only hearsay and you can fight that. Don’t take the test.
I did a tiny key bump on Nov 26 with about 44oz of beer. Before that I had been clean from cocaine for about 12 days with vigorous water, fresh veggies… All that. I now have a UA sent to the lab in 7 days. What are your thoughts? Will this clear out?
It takes around 3 to 4 days for the drug to get washed off from the body, enough to not show up in the urine test.
I did a 10 of coke for my first time and drank 3 bud ice 25 ounce each. Will I pass in 62 hours?
I did a 10 of coke for my first time 12-7-14 at 8:00 pm and drank 2 bud ice 25ounce each thats the time. I finished 12-8-14 1:00pm drank 2 more and I have a urine test 12-10-14 at 4:00pm sent to redwood toxicology lab you think. I will pass I’m also 5’10 175 pounds.
You need to be very aggressive for cleansing. Read above in details about it.
You do have a chance to pass.
You need to be very aggressive for cleansing. Read above in details about it.
You do have a chance to pass.
I did 2 small lines on friday night at 10pm. I had a drugs test on monday at 2:30 pm. I am 5ft 10 and 170lb. Do you think I will pass?
If you are a regular user of the drug, passing the test would be difficult.
However, if this was a one time use of the drug, you have chances of passing the test.
On sept 8th of 2017, I did a 40 piece of coke shared it with friends. I also smoked about 3 cigarettes laced with it. I do smoke cigarettes on the daily basis. I’ve been clean since. I’m about 58 180IB. I will be getting tested on the 29th of September for probation. It’s a urine based test. I did drink about 4 beers. Do you think I have a good chance of passing? I’ve been drinking a gallon of water but still smoke cigarettes. It’s my last day of 2 years of probation. please help thanks !!!
Be very aggressive about cleaning your system. You still have time in hand. No alcohol, limit to tea and coffee. Avoid smoking as well. All these chemicals may hold back the drug in the body.
Instead, your body needs plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Lots of water and physical activities.
With all those steps, you are likely to pass.
Thank you so much doc I really need to pass this test. I will stop the cigarettes as of today and try too drink plenty of water and sweat it all out what type of fruits would you recommend?
All seasonal fruits, that are juicy.
Last question, just in case is there any detox that I can buy to mask the benzoy, I heard zinc does the job is this true by any chance??
You may take a multivitamin/ multimineral pill, there’s no harm unless you take a overdose. Consume as directed over its leaflet.
Role of such detox methods are not proven clinically.
What about those detox drinks they sell at GNC ??
Drinks containing fruit extract may help.
I did about 3-4 lines of coke after drinking around 5-7 shots of vodka a few hours before , I’m 5’9,155 and did coke about a month ago. If I did this Saturday morning In The ams when should my pee be clear for a lab drug test
Depends upon how aggressively you cleanse yourself. In general, you’re likely to be clean in 5 to 7 days.
I did cocaine on fri I have a urine test on Tues at 4 pm I bin drinking water. Is there any way I can pass my test
Dboy you wont pass not enough time the cocaine metabolites stay in urine 4-5 days
Following steps listed here for cleansing would help- http://buddymd.com/excrete-cocaine-quickly
How long is benzoylecgonine detectectable in saliva after a few specks of cocaine were ingested orally by accident i was wondering since its one time use not a regular user
Two days, maximum. You need to keep a good oral hygiene to get rid of any hidden speck in your mouth.
I did 2 very small lines on the 9-17 and one small key bump on 9-24 I had a moderate amount of alcohol both times but none in between. Haven’t drank since 9-24. I hAve a UA 10-5 (today) drank lots of water. Some coffee though. What are my chances of passing I’m a 5’7″ female 125lb pretty fast metabolism.
Have you been using the drug before 9-17 also? If yes, your body may have accumulated stocks of it.
If not, you are likely to wash of these two uses of the drug by 10-5. Just follow all steps recommended for cleansing.
Hello Buddy I snorted about .5 of coke 3 weeks ago with alcohol. Been drinking a lot of cranberry juice. I was wondering if adderal makes coke stay in your system longer? Did adderal about two weeks ago for a week.
Adderal metabolism adds on to the overall liver burden. However, it’s unlikely to make a considerable delay in excretion.
If you are a regular user of coke since months, it may be difficult to pass. However, if this usage of a one time event, you’re likely to pass by 20th October.
Continue following all steps to cleanse your system.
Also I have a test the 20th of October will I pass?
Doctor, how long will it take me to get clean from coke if I haven’t done it in 25 days and I just kissed a girl who had gummed some and had a little on her tongue I didn’t drink alchol
Around 3 to 5 days, in general.
I had some cocaine on Friday around 5pm to 7pm and I have a drug screen the following Friday at 9am. Will it show in urine drug test?
Was this a one time use of the drug? If yes, cleanse yourself well. You are likely to pass.
However, for regular users, this time period would not be sufficient.
I just did about a gram of cocaine over the weekend ending on sunday, i was just notified i would be doing a mouth swab test by friday being 5 days since then. What are my chances of passing?
Hey doctor I have a UA that has been sent to the lab. I did about a gram of cocain and drank about 8 beers and took about 4 shots. The next day I had 2 bumps and had a mixed drink. I took my UA 10 days later but I had been working out, sweating a lot, and drinking a good amount of water. Do you think I will pass? I am 5’10 and weigh 205 pounds.
You are likely to pass.
You are likely to pass. Keep a good oral hygiene.
Hello doctor, i used 1 gram of cocaine 18 days before do a lab drug test from urine, you think i will past? i’m not a regular user, and i’m 24 years old. and i’m not a fat guy, and pratice exercises, this drug test is for get in Police! i’m feel so bad, and never gonna use again
Theres possibility to dont past in test?
Since you’re not a regular user, you’re likely to pass.
I have a drug test this Wednesday, it’s Friday night, and I was planning on taking very little, only one line if that is to make my chances higher. I have done it quite a lot a year ago but almost nothing recently. So if I am to take one-two small lines of cocaine, what are the chances of me getting caught by a urine test in 5 days? I’m in my early twenties, pretty normal weight, male. So am I getting caught and is there anything I could do to help my test.
Since you have been using the drug in the past, there are chances that you have some amount of stored drug in your body. Results would depend upon how much is this stored amount.
1 to 2 small lines of cocaine can be flushed out in 5 days. Be very aggressive about cleansing yourself. Read here about steps that would help- http://buddymd.com/excrete-cocaine-quickly
I’ve done coke every night for a week . I have a urine screen Tuesday . what are the chances of passing ?
How many days do you have between the day of last use and the test day?
How long does cocaine and its metabolites stay in saliva
In general, around 2 days.
Precisely speaking, this would depend upon the amount taken and your oral hygiene.
I snorted a gram of coke on 20 Oct and have a urine test in 24 days, I last used in late August. Will this be enough time to pass the test?
You have enough time for cleansing yourself. Take all steps to wash off the drug from your body. You’re likely to pass.
How much does age impact on clearing the metabolites after doing cocaine?
Age affects the basal metabolic rate of the body. It slows down in a natural way as you age up.
Hence, the metabolism of the drug slows down in higher age group.
I very stupidly consumed about .5-.75 grams of cocain this weekend and have a drug test this week. Stopped consuming about 5am on 10/21. Drank heavily on 10/20 and 10/21 . Since 10am on 10/22 I have been consuming a gallon of water/day, taking detox pills, stopped smoking, stopped consuming alcohol, started eating veggies/fruits, and very little fats at all.
I have a test for a job I really want on 10/27. I am 35 yrs old, 6’3″, and 225lbs. I’ve consumed 1-2 times per year for past several years. Can you give me a percentage to pass based on your experience. ALSO, what can I do to boost my odds above what I’m doing.. Does drinking lemon juice work? What if I take a detox drink the day of? Are these detectible? I’ve heard they work.
What nomogram level are labs generally looking for? Have 300 ng kit I’m going to take prior.
I just need to get through this and never again will I touch that crap!
You have fair chances of passing the test. Most lab test at 150ng or above.
Just need to cleanse yourself as much as possible. The only way is flushing out the drug. And this can be done by taking lots of fluids, like, plain water, fruit juices. Lemon juice or detox drinks are good.
Abstain from alcohol. Limit intake of tea and coffee, as well.
Hey Doc I’m did about 3 lines October 20th and drank several beers. I also drank several shots a week after. I was wondering if I’d pass my LAB ua November 17th.
If this was a one time use of the drug, you’re very likely to pass. Cleanse yourself as much as possible in the available time window.
I snorted around 0.2 grams on Saturday night. I have a test on Thursday. It was taken with a lot of alcohol but I regularly exercise, am fit and haven’t done drugs for years before. How likely will I pass (blood and urine test)?
You’re likely to pass the urine test.
The drug may show up in blood.
I’m 6’2 250 lbs not very active besides going to work. I havent done cocaine in over 6 months. If I was to shoot a gram how long would it take before it will not show up in my urine?
That’s a substantial quantity. It may take a week or so to get flushed out of the body.
Hey Buddy I did about 3 lines of coke on September the 20th and drank about 3 bud light platinums when I did it the next weekend I drank some Hennessy and the next weekend I didn’t drink anything but water and Gatorade then the next weekend I drank a four loco then will be clean for a week by the 17th when my test is, with drinking nothing but Gatorade. Will I pass my test do to I drinking so much alcohol ?
I drank every Friday and been clean 1 week on the 17th will I pass
You’ll be tested on 17th of Nov, right? If yes, you’ve good chances of passing the urine test.
Snorted .4 gr on Sunday drank alcohol next 3 days. Day 4 11 liters of water till urine is clear have urine test today is there chance of passing 108 hours after use. Was first time in 2 years
Likely to pass.
Went out on vacation 10/26-10/30 and did coke at least once each day and drank tequila. Did a lot on the final day. Last time I did blow it was 1.5 years ago, and only do on vacation. Barely drink at home. Very active, very active job 20 days later took drug test, thoughts?
Since the overall drug usage has been quite substantial, flushing it out would take time. The drug may show up in the test.
Well took a test yesterday and was negative.
You may pass then.
Most lab tests are similar to home tests.
My sister is somewhat a regular user (although can you define what would qualify as regular as opposed to heavy or chronic) I believe and has binges as well as periods of abstaining from cocaine. She has a lot of chronic pain and as such, has been prescribed oxycodone and ms contin as well as gabapentin meds for nerve pain and cyclobenzaprine for muscles She has recently been asked to provide for a UA, which she has passed each time. She is somewhat active, very slim and very little body fat with a fast metabolism. She doesn’t drink but does smoke and drinks caffeine. Recently I have found out she has been using a lot since her last UA approx 2 months ago (not sure how much or how often or what quality) other than I know she used approx 5-6grams last week. she does not use any other drugs. She has to see her doc every 3 months for refills. I don’t know why she would risk losing her meds for being stupid but she has. How long will she need to abstain with aggressively following your suggestions for the metabolite to be below level of detection? And how much do the other meds interfere in the detox process?
15 to 20 days at the minimum.
Thank you so much for ypur responss. And how much water should she be drinking a day? ?
10 to 12 glasses of water, at the minimum.
Hey doc. I’m male around 6-2 and about 200-215 lbs. I’ve had a steady use for awhile now and If I get offered this job a screening will be mandatory. I am doing all I can to excrete the by product from system using detoxification products, crazy amounts of niacin, v8 low sodium, fruits, meats, and a shit ton of water. I have accepted the fact I may not get it out in time. Do you know of any detox drink/mask that I could use pre test to get me thru this ua if all else fails?
Oh and exercising and sweating as much as I can
Just patiently continue following all steps for cleansing yourself. You may take around 20 days or so to be clean.
Hey buddy! I did about .3 of cocaine yesterday. I snorted it the day before I drank 3 beers. I was wondering how long it would be in my system and if the beers the day before make it stay in my system longer I have a test on Dec 11.
Was this a one time use of the drug? If yes, you’re likely to be clean by 11 DEC.
Yes, I’ve been clean for two months and only did it this one time, how many days does it take to get out your system if I did drink 3 beers the day before?
You’re likely to pass, then.
I drank alcohol Thursday night. Then did a line of coke after. Since then, I drank nothing but water and took water pills. What are the chances I would pass a urine test today nov 29th.
So, has it been a week clean? If this was a one time use of the drug, you’re likely to be clean in a week.
However, if you’re a frequent user, the drug may show up.
I’m 24. I weigh 100-105. I haven’t used coke in over a year but the past two days I’ve done about half a gram while drinking. I have to call to see if my transfer has went through on Monday the following week. Today is Thursday and my last line was at 4am. It will also be my first meeting and I don’t know if I’ll even go in Monday but if I have to will I pass?
I also smoke cigs and about a month ago I would drink everyday. After I got arrested I have smoked weed at all or done drugs untkl this morning (Thursday) and yesterday. I have a fast metabolism but I drink sodas constantly and I piss so very much a day.
You need a week to cleanse yourself. Time available is too less.
i am about 5.8 tall 140lbs, I did 3 small doses of cocaine on November 25 and my UA was on November 28 at 340 on the afternoon, what are my chances ? Oh and i have a strong metabolism
Time available for flushing out the drug was very small. Results difficult to predict.
Hey Doc,
So this past Saturday night I used cocaine, also had quite a bit of alcohol in my system over the course of about 9 hours. I used about 4-5 lines of cocaine and it was the first time in a long time. I am 6 feet and 185 pounds. I get over 30 minutes to an hour of exercise everyday, have never had any issues with my liver blood pressure or anything. I used until about 3 am Sunday, my drug test will be this coming Monday. This gives me about 9 days to prepare. I have been drinking water non stop, I am doing a 7 day rapid cleanse detox, eating regularly healthy and normal, the odd fast food meal, am drinking zero alcohol. I am so SO stressed about this friggen test as it could possibly revoke my offer of employment for a new job. I am peeing non stop and feel hopeful. Should I be worried, what are my chances?
Thanks
Also I am 22 years old if that matters
Also I should add I am not sure how to describe how much I used exactly as lines can vary in size obviously depending on the user, but I do know I purchased half of a gram and the amount that I flushed down the toilet the next morning was a lot, meaning the size of the lines was about half of a pinky finger
And it’s a urine test going to a lab. Sorry I’ll stop now just very anxious. Thx!
You are likely to pass the urine test.
Hello I did a couple lines of cocaine on Saturday during the day and was drinking wine throughout the day as well. I have been drinking gallons of water constantly to try and flush it out of my system and eating fruits and veggies but I could be tested Monday night. Is there any chance that I could pass? I have done cocaine in the past on Fridays and as long as I had Saturday and Sunday to detox I could usually pass a test on Monday but now I’m concerned because I did some on Saturday so I don’t have that extra day of detox. Do I have any hope of passing?
Too less time in hand. Difficult to cleanse so soon.
I am disgusted with myself. 2 nights ago i got a G of coke to split with 3 friends and myself.. I get randomly drug tested and my initial was called for testing today! ? I am desperate to pass this. Please help me. What detox kits or drink can I buy please
Was this a one time use of the drug? If yes, you do have a chance. Abstain from alcohol and caffeine. Flush off the drug by drinking plenty of water.
How long does cocoethylene take to get eliminated from ur urine. I did 2 grams and drank a lot of hard liquor. Is 22 days enough to test negative on ur urine?? Please help. To am not a regular user and have a fast metabolism . 130 ibs

Hi, I did approx 2 grams of iv cocaine on Saturday morning and have a drug test thursday night alcohol was also consumed – what are my chances of passing – please help
If this was a one time use of the drug, you’re likely to pass. Need to cleanse yourself very aggressively.
Hi
My husband done a saliva drug test for cocaine at work on the 19th December it came back as inconclusive so it got sent to a lab for further testing he has just been told today (3rd Jan) it was positive for cocaine. How long would it have shown in his saliva for? He is telling me he hasn’t took any for ages but I don’t believe him. Do you get better results with lab tests? He used to take cocaine alot 2 years ago but I thought he had stopped completely but now this test has come back I don’t believe him ?
It’s likely that he has taken the drug recently.
I’m an heavy user. I don’t drink much water but I do drink lots of vitamins water, if that counts. I don’t exercise but I do walk a lot I’m 5’1 and I know I’m underweight it’s always been a problem I’ve never even before I started never weighted more then 96 pounds. I will be getting tested in about 7 days for a new job.
Heavy users need around 15 to 20 days to be clean.
Today is January 11th. around 10am I did a line of cocaine. Then another small one at 11. One more medium sized one at 1:30pm. And I’ve been put it in my gums about 3 times. I could have a drug test Monday at 4pm. If I sit in the sauna, run on the treadmill and play basketball all day tomorrow. Then sauna all the other days wil that help me pass on Monday. I’m 6’0 I weigh 170 my metabolism is crazy fast cause it’s hard for me to gain weight when I’m training. I don’t do any drugs I’ve been sober for 10months besides alcohol. And I workout excessively. Look forward to your answer
Cleanse yourself aggressively. Since you were sober earlier, you have a chance to pass.
Hi im 250 6’2″ on friday night i did about 2 lines each may be 1.5″ long and thin. I have a test on thursday and have been drinking lots and lots of water. My test is a urine test you think i have a good chance to pass? Is there something else i can do before tomorrow?
If you’re a one time user, likely to pass.
I use sporadically and its been about a month since my last use.
Likely to pass.
Ok say someone did a gram once a day for 7 days stopes and has a mouth swab test coming up in 12 days what will it take to pass???
A very good oral hygiene, practiced on a daily basis. Plus, it’s better to start detoxifying the body whole for better results.
Drink lots of water. Refrain from alcohol and limit to caffeine. Include plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables in your daily diet.
I went on a 3 day coke binge probably snorting around 6 to 7 grams in that short period. I never used before though. My last intake was Thursday morning at 5 am and I have a drug test next Tuesday. Is that enough time for the coke to be out of my system so I can pass the test? That’s 12 days in between.
You have time in hand to cleanse yourself.
Hi, i have a test on 12 februari.
I used last time on 1 februari with 1 beer, i used regulary like 2-3 times a week. I am 1.60m and 57kg.
I only drink water and 1 cup of coffee in the morning.
I drink detox thee but this is not good?
I do work out 3 times a week and eat healthy.
Is the’re a chance that i can pass the test?
Also what do you mean with Cleanse yourself aggressively? Thank you and sorry for the language.
Since you are a chronic user, it may take around 15 days to cleanse.
Timeline of use:
Used on the weekends for about 6 months prior to these dates. Then I did about a half gram on
October 27th
November 24th
Jan 1st
I have a test coming up will be clean for 30+ days. I eat healthy workout everyday and drink a lot of water. I drink alcohol on the weekends. Should I be worried?
Will be 37 days clean now. I had a whole month before the last time I used so I’m hoping I got a lot of the metabolites out during that month.
Do you have 37 days for cleansing up yourself? If yes, you’re likely to pass.
In a lot of these posts you say “chronic user”. What determines a chronic user? How many times a month or week
Ones using the drug on a regular basis since weeks, months or year. If it’s a weekly usage of the drug for more than 3 week, the user will qualify as being a chronic one. People taking more than this amount are definitely more difficult to treat.
I am roughly 190 pounds, Male, late 20s, prescribed d-amphetamine salt combo 20mg twice daily. Done 2.8 grams stretched from Saturday, Monday, Wednesday. Alcohol intake was 4.2% beer which I consumed maybe a quarter to a half can each time (tallboy) late into the moment.
I have a test coming up Monday possibly which is at random. I have started taking multivitamin men’s one a day(regular dose) , emergen C(1 packet), Nician(not exceeding 1500mg stretched throughout day) B12 Mcg, Vitamin E 1000 IU.
Been avoiding caffeine, fats, and oils. Drinking tons of water. Sexually active and will be going to the gym Saturday & Sunday. Will incorporate cranberry juice & steamed vegis immediatly.
First question is my prescription going to interfere with this detox and two do you think I will be fine. Stupid move on my part should’ve thought it through.
Your prescription drug is unlikely to interfere with detoxification.
Likely to pass with all those precautions you are taking.
Dr. I am 5’9 310lbs i have done cocaine every saturday for 2 Months i would be clean 6-7 days and then do some. During the 6-7 days i would just drink water no alcohol. My question is would i pass a drug test urine in 24 days. Also want to mention sometimes i would have a beer or 2 while doing coke. What are my chances of passing ? And would it be good to do cardio for the nxt 24 days ??
you have good chances of passing the test. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Exercising would be a good idea, as you sweat more and drink more water.
Consume plenty of fruits and vegetables in your daily diet.
Hi
I did 4 lines of cocaine 8 days ago and I’ve been aggressively drinking water for those 8 days. Will the metabolite benzoylecgonine be out of my system. It was my first time in a year.
I’m 6″3 weigh 13 stone and I am obviously thin.
Likely to be clean.
If someone did coke once (2 key bumps) and is getting drug tested in approximately 40 days (hair test), do you think they will pass? Haven’t done any other drugs in a year and a half.
Would be your luck. Theoretically, the drug may still show up.
However, if you cut your hair short, it’s quite likely that you turn out clean.
Can’t cut hair short because a girl, but how likely is a one time use of coke to show up in a hair drug test a month later? Read that one time use isn’t detectable in a hair test? Would they be perfectly clean for a urine test?
Your blood might be caring traces of the drug. If you’re lucky, your hair won’t use that blood for growth. However, it may.
I have used regularly crack for a year I’ve been clean 20 days take urine screen the 8th do I have a chance in hell of passing.I drink plenty of water every day and will continue what’s my chances with 30 plus days clean
You may take a month to be clean.
However, with each passing week of detoxifying diet, your chances of passing the test improve.
Relapsed did 3 grams will be clean 26 days likely test probation the 12th of April have taken 7day cleanse on second day drink mad water fruit juices vegetables greens fruits beans and corn salads ginger lemon heated tea 15 detox such as burdock root tameric celantro reishi mushrooms olives Italian dressing cranberry beans navy beans kidney beans lemon water dandelion root ginger root and many more Asian herbs and berries seaweed cranberry juice Brussel sprouts mad broccoli peanut butter pecans almonds apples oranges lemons b12 niacin black coffee 1cup for jump start stay active at work 4days a week with my past history can I pass by the twelfth of April if tested am done with drugs and alcohol it’s not worth it.

You need a month’s time to be clean.
Cut offs for urine testing at VA are 150ng/ ml
Likely to pass. Continue with the cleansing steps.

A few weeks ago I did cocaine for the first time in years. I did a large amount on a saturday night into sunday morning. I failed a drug test taken wednesday evening. I didn’t do it for two weeks and just did a tiny line on friday night. I have a drug test tomorrow (thursday) do you think i will pass? On 1 mg. of suboxone. Take fioricet sometimes too. Please help asap. Also test is in the morning!
If you’ve cleansed yourself well, likely to pass.
Sounds like a ridiculous question. But can u fail a cocaine test because of oral sex? If I swallowed a cocaine users sperm can I test positive from it?
No.
Can u test positive for cocaine through swallowing seman during oral sex?
No.
I meant fail a cocaine urine test from Soren that comes from a cocaine user?…thanks for your time
I am 38 year old female and failed my last 3 drug test (urine) for cocaine. Dec, jan, feb test. I know everyone claims to be clean. I did use in November before thanksgiving cocaine. I am not taking any other medication other then the same stuff i have always taken. Like Advil or ompremazole. I was told my feb test was 15 ng-ml which is low but is that even possible if thanksgiving was my last time using. They asked me if i am not using was i touching it anywhere. No i have not had any contact. I was reading about kidney issues. I did have kidney stone about 6 months ago. Should I be worried. I can see one test being wrong but over and over something is wrong… Help…

I have been snorting cocaine and drinking about once a week for about 2 months. I last used March 4th and am getting a blood test conducted (gc/ms) on 4/3 and need to be clear of all molecules. I started drinking plenty of water and using the steam room at my gym along with hot baths at home. Should I be worried?
Continue with the cleansing steps. Likely to be clean by test date.
Hey Dr. Im 315 lbs 5’9 i have been clean for a total of 22 day because i have a Dot Drug test coming up on the26th of April on the 13th day i took a home drug test and passed but unfortunately on the 23 day i relapsed and did a Gram of white and now have only 14 days till my Urine test what are the chances of me passing this test i did consume alchol on the 23 with it. But have been drinking water and doing minor cardio what are my chances of passing. So total days clean 22 then relapsed and now have 14 days till test.
Likely to pass. Just continue with your cleansing steps.
Hi Buddy, I unfortunately did a key bump of cocaine this Past Saturday morning with alcohol. I believe I have a urine test this coming Friday. I have been drinking water and eating fruits all day and plan to continue detoxing all week. Im in my very early 20’s, I’m 5’9 and weigh 147lbs. Do you think I can pass the test? Also, I have tried cocaine 1 other time but it was a year ago.
Likely to pass.
Will going to a steam room for a half hour daily help? Or will the Benzoylecgonine stay in my system regardless? I was going to start taking milk thistle for the next few days, any chance that would help?
Steam room may help cleansing, though to a small extent. No proven role of milk thistle known.
Hi Buddy, I have a pre employment drug screening coming up on Friday. I did a small line of cocaine on Saturday just like user above and with hard liquor. I took a first check Home drug test and tested clean for cocaine. The Benzoylecgonine cutoff on the take home test is 300mg/l and I think the one I take at the lab is 150mg/l. Do you think I will be clean by this Friday? Thanks!
Do you use the drug frequently or was this a one time use? If this was one time, you’ve good chances of getting clean by Friday. Take all steps to detoxify your system.
I do not use the drug frequently. Only used it 2 other times in small amounts with last use over 3 months ago
Likely to be clean.
Hi i used 2 grams of cocaine and have a ua in 6 days. Havent used in close to 10 years i am fit and exercise often and have been sober from alcohol for 9 months. Any input or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou!
You have good chances of passing the test. Continue cleansing yourself during these available days.
I did 2.5 grams over 12 hourssaturday to sundimg morning at 12pm, and I have a test Tuesday’s roughly 9 days from there, what are my chances in passing if i also want a detox drink called total jazz detox
If this was a one time use of the drug, you’re likely to pass the test.
However, if you consume the drug frequently, cleansing may take longer.
Add to question above, I’m 5″”5 and weigh about 195 used to be very muscular but haven’t worked out steady in a year
I use once a week about half a gram i weigh 300 5’8 how long will it take to clear out
Once a week since how many months/ years?
I would say about a year maybe a bit longer
I took a home test pos for coke but it has onoy been 3 days since last use
Is it possible to pass a urine test after 19 days while drinking coffee and energy drinks every day. The test is in 3 days. Took home test and was clean with a solid negative test line. I have been drinking a gallon of water every day. No past usage did around a gram. I’m very worried it’s causing me some anxiety I have to pass this drug test. They are going to test me with a instant test cutoff 150 they won’t send it to the lab unless it comes up dirty. I can’t wait for this to be over I hope I pass and never be so stupid again to put everything at risk.
You’ll pass in all likelihood.
How long does it take to get to 150ngs if you pass a home test kit set at 300ngs standard test.Providing your still cleansing intensely and eating healthy.ive heard of 150ngs instant home test.But I could not find one online.Thanks Ray
Passed at 300ngs. Give a week of cleansing and you pass at 150ngs also.
All the info online is not reliable. Even after single usage, taking lots of remedies, cleansers, detoxs, vitamins, niacin, creatine, cranberry juice, cranberry pills, gatorade, water, zinc, magnesium, and more for 10 days, still failed the test (benzoylecgonine). I think constipation and other medications can also slow down the process. I have never tried the pectin method. Apparently, removing the metabolites from the fatty tissue and pushing toxins out of the stool is a method. It doesnt seem to matter. Maybe add sweating, steam rooms, exercise, long hot baths with epsom salt might help?? Also creatine is supposed to help because pH level is important on urine tests.
I use about a gram a week for the past year or so the last dose was about three days ago i took a home test came up pos. Im 5’8 about 300 lbs how long should it take to clear out. Thx
20 days to a month!
What would be considered light to heavy use on average.
I am 6’2” 300lbs not very active male. I sniffed 1 gram of cocaine 11 days, and 2 grams 4 days ago. Both I had a 6 pack of beer with.. I have a urine test in 5 days. I usually eat a lot of fast food and unhealthy foods with lots of caffeine.. For the past 2 days I’ve been eating fruits, veggies, and salmon only, while drinking only water every daY. The test is a 300ng test. What is the likelyhood I’ll pass it?
I may also add I have been taking niacin on a daily basis to speed up my metabolism. I took an at home drug test for cocaine today and passed, however the line was very very faint.
You have good chances of passing the test. Just continue with the cleansing efforts.
I did one small line of cocaine on Saturday 4/7 at 10:30 pm. I am not a frequent user, the last time I had done it before that was 2 Weeks earlier. I had a few beers and a glass of whiskey after the 1 line. The next day Sunday 4/8 I drank some coffee and some water and just went about my day. The next day Monday 4/9 I sweat perfusely three different times of the day I biked with multiple layers on and I have a fast metabolism as it is. I drank tons of water and was peeing all day and night and ate fruits and vegetables and drank detoxifying drinks. I drank water up until about 3:30 AM on Tuesday 4/10. I went in at 6:30 AM that morning to take a urine test. This is for college sports drug testing so I do not know if they test for Benzoylecgonine in a urine sample? They said my pee was very diluted but that it just made the requirements for the pee sample. Do you think I can pass that urine test having only done 1 small line and going through all of that detoxing? Overall was about 32 hours from the one line to the test. But from what i have read since I did so little cocaine and did all of that detox and sweating and I have a fast metabolism at 6’ 170 pounds. Is it possible for me to pass the urine test? There is no way so little can be in my urine after all my efforts. Please let me know what you think!
Difficult to predict. Though you detoxified quite well, the time available for cleansing was very little.
Still, you definitely have a chance to pass.
I have not used any mind altering substances since January but I was urine tested I passed the initial test but it was sent to the lab where they are saying I tested positive for cocaine. I don’t understand how this is possible. The only thing I can think is that I work at a gas station and handle money on a daily basis. I personally know 50% of our customers are active users. So the only thing I can think is I tested positive from handling dirty money on a regular basis. Please help.
Yes, may be. It’s possible to get contaminated with the drug this way.
I have been doing cocaine in the weekend every other week for some time now. It aill be 11 days since i last did it for my next drug test. Im drinking plently of water and taking niacin to help with cleansing the fat tissue. Is there anything else i can do?
Abstain from alcohol and limit your intake of caffeine to a minimum. These chemicals hold back the drug in the body.
You may also include the proportion of fruits and vegetables in your diet to better the detoxification process.
First off I am not a chronic user of any drug I work out 4-6 days a week. I’m 69 inches tall and weight from 160-165.
Saturday got a little out of hand. I drank a bunch and took about 2-4 bumps up the nose of cocaine. Sunday and Monday I drank nothing but water. Don’t know exactly how much.
Monday around 6pm I took 2 diuretic pills as well. Tuesday I woke up took my morning piss and got ready. On my way to work I took two more diuretic pills and drank a little bit more water before showing up to work.
At 0710 I took my piss test. I used the last bit of my stream and it came out clear. I was still paranoid so I went to Walmart and bought a first check drug test. I came up negative for THC and cocaine. Cocaine line was pretty faint.
Plus I know the cutoff level for cocaine is 300ng/ml for first check and I think DOD uses cutoff level of 150ng/ml for cocaine. Overall, I am 90% sure that I had 50-56 hours before my drug test
So my question is, did I pass the DOD drug test or should I expect a positive results in a few weeks?
Additionally, it was no more than 2g since we only had 2g to share between three people
Most likely, you passed.
Did I pass for benzoylecgonine as well or just for cocaine?
For cocaine, yes! For the metabolite, most likely yes.
Hey I just had a baby 6 weeks ago not on any pain meds .but I used about *$60 worth of crack tonight 2 decent prices n 2small pieces …I fucked up … when can I take a drug test? Bc I’m in outpatient
After a week of cleansing!
I did a small line 6.5 days before my urine test. I had also drank about 6 drinks that night. Haven’t drinken alcohol since and drank a lot of water in the days leading up to my test. That was my first time using. Will I pass?
It was much less than 1g
Likely to pass.
If I did a line and a half for a one time
User, and had some
Alcohol in my system. I will have around 20 days of cleansing no alcohol! Will I pass a drug urine lab test in 20 days for the metabolite?
P.S. I’m only scared because I was pretty drunk when I did the line and a half. One time only .. been drinking plenty of water and staying active… will have 20 days or more before my urine lab drug test thank you … hope to hear from you Doc
Likely to pass.
Even for the metabolite? Sorry just a little nervous idiot me…
Since they are screening me for Benzoylecgonine in my lab urine test for on my pre job. Not sure if the cut off is 300 ng or 150 ng? Either or you’ll think I’ll be fine and get it off my mind that I’ll pass those two cutoffs for benzoylecgonine in my urine? Since I did such a small amount for one time user.
Thanks a lot hope to hear from you.
You’ll pass.
Follow all cleansing steps to ascertain your chances of passing.
I had a random today. I used someone else’s clean urine that was 2 weeks old. It was recorded as the right temperature, and sent to the lab. What do you think the results will be. It was 100% clean.
Depends upon the storage of urine. If stored well, you’re likely to be clean.
I smoked about a 100 dollars worth of cocaine on Thursday night into Friday morning finishing up about 3am without drinking alcohol I haven’t did anything in over 2 months. I’m 5’11. 216 pounds. I just found out I have to take a urine test Wednesday morning. What are my chances of passing.
If you cleanse yourself thoroughly, you’re very likely to pass.
I took a bump on sunday morning around 7am. I drank a lot of water, my urine was basically crystal clear, and I sweated a whole lot prior to my test on Monday night around 9pm. Do you think I passed? I’m a one time user and it was just a bump.
Difficult to say. Cleansing usually needs more time.
I snorted 3 lines of cocaine on 5/4/18 and took a drug screen today for a job. I’m a one time user and do not consume any other drugs. I’m 5’ 10”. 195lbs. Moderately active. Drink lots of water. Alcohol only on weekends. What are my odds here? Thank you.
Likely to pass.
Smoked maybe .3-.5 grams of crack cocaine since last night around 10:30p.m. (counting today it was a total of 4 small hits) I haven’t touched it but one other time a little over 6 months ago. Was smoked. I’m 5’10 and 190lbs. I get random mouth swabs once a week, possibly have one on Monday after 12p.m. at the earliest. Will I pass? I stay active and drink water. I wouldn’t say alot of water but I drink it. Any idea how long it will take to not show on a mouth swab and any tips to cleanse my system? Again it is a mouth swab that is sent to a lab and the earliest I would have it would be on this next coming monday.
Thanks.
You have around two days with you. Keep drinking plenty of water. Abstain from all alcoholic beverages and smoking. Limit to tea and coffee. These chemicals hold the drug back in the body.
Include fresh fruits and stewed vegetables in each meal. These serve as best detoxifiers. Maintain a good oral hygiene. Proper brushing, flossing and a lot of mouth rinsing to wash off all specks of the drug from it.
You have good chances of passing a saliva test on Monday.
My sister is 33 weeks pregnant has been using about 1.5 grams once a week of not pure cocaine she stopped using 6 days ago her drs appointment is another 5 days which will be 11 days altogether. Will it show up in her urine?
It would be very difficult to clean up so soon. Though she has a chance. Ask to to cleanse herself very intensively during the time available. The urine may be clean.
However, her blood samples or hair may still show the drug.
Does she and the baby have a chance to be clean by the time she gives birth at 40 wks?
Yes, she has. It’s very much possible to make the urine clean by then. However, blood may still remain contaminated, refraining her from breast feeding.
I am drinking coca tea(mate de coca),no alcohol,how long need to wait to take the test
You are taking cocaine.
Depends upon the overall use of the tea. Since when are you having it?
I took about half a gram just under two weeks ago whilst drinking, about another half a gram over a week ago while drinking, then probably over half a gram 4 days ago after drinking a couple of beers (I stopped drinking when I knew I was gonna take it). Since then I haven’t touched alcohol, have been eating vegetables and stews, hardly any fatty foods and have been doing a fair amount of walking. I have drunk a couple of coffees and teas though. I could be tested anytime in the next week. What are my chances of passing?
Also I have been drinking water and cranberry juice.
So, you’ll get around 7 to 10 days free after last drug usage!
You have a fair chance to pass. Keep cleansing as much possible to increase chances.
I could be tested today. So that’s only 4 days after last drug usage.
Still have a fair chance?
4 days may be inadequate. Cleanse yourself aggressively to give it a better chance.
I’m sorry to keep asking questions but it’s really playing on my mind about getting tested.
How many days would you say I’d probably be in the clear by?
You need around a week of good cleansing, after your last drug usage.
Thanks for all your help.
It’s been 6 days now and I don’t see myself being randomly tested over the weekend so with any luck I should be fine.
I will add I’m 6’2” and 175 lbs with good metabolism. Hopefully that helps my case should I be tested from today onwards.
Do let us know your result.
So it will be roughly 11 days since I last used cocaine now. I’m assuming if I get tested from any point onwards I should be ok?
Likely to pass.
I was drinking with an old friend and after 4 beers did a small line of cocaine, est. @ 0.2 grams or less. I have not used cocaine or any illegal drug in 6 or 7 years. My work hair tests once yearly and randomly. I am 6′, 180lbs, drink lots of water, stay active, and take vitamins. Will this cause a positive result on a hair follicle test were it performed within the next 3 months? Could this be eliminated from my hair quicker?
Your hair may show up the drug. Unfortunately, there’s no way of quicker cleansing.
Hair grow and take up blood all the time .When your blood stream was carrying cocaine and its metabolites, some hair strands in your body may have nourished themselves with blood containing the drug. Those hair strands may give positive.
Trimming your hair to the shortest possible length may help. Be cautious, they sometimes check body hair.
hey buddy I recently did a key shot of cocaine Saturday and was drinking last time i did it was about 2 months ago and I have a urine drug screening non dot sap 5-50 mdma test on Saturday which is a week from when I took a key shot of cocaine…will I pass the drug screening urine test tomorrow?
Likely to pass.
thank you doc for your time for answering our questions…
Welcome!
and I am 5’8 190 lbs does it matter I worked out a lot these past 5 days and I just took my test would I be fine…thank you doc
Likely to pass.
hey buddy sorry to bug but just worried I asked some questions above and just wanted to let you know that it is lab tested does that make any difference?
hey buddy I wrote to you above in the name of david r…I waited five days and had a few beers and I still exercised on friday and drank a lot of water and ate fruits and exercised for at least 1 30 minutes had a urine test on Saturday that passed will I pass the urine test?i had 7 days for cleansing dranked lots of water through out the week and exercised for an 1 30…just stressed out about it…on Thursday I had a few beers will that affect me
You’ll pass.
It’s very interesting that when factual information is posted here regarding cocaine metabolite urine excretion and urinalysis rather than these nonsensical claims of 25-30 day or any other claim of detection beyond 5-7 days, it is not refuted or debated with any scientific fact or publication, but rather the post is deleted… Wonder why?
Hello, I did one small line of coke, and haven’t used before. Will that show up in a hair test? Or will it be below the levels?
Though, in most cases as yours, people pass. However, theoretically, the drug may show up. This test is very precise.
Cleanse up flush out as much drug as possible from your body. Trimming your hair short helps in most cases.
And experiences or answers will help. Kinda panicking
Hi, I did about .2 or maybe .25 of Coke at 11pm last night (Monday). I also drank 2 cocktails and did 1 shot. I haven’t done cocaine in 3 years, and I rarely drink (1st drink in over a year at least). I’m female, 5’10” and about 125-30 lbs. I exercise everyday ranging from 1 hour to 3 hours (intense cardio, running, circuit training, boxing). I have a drug test Friday afternoon. Will I pass? I’m worried I’m a poor metabolizer of the drug because i had an oral swab done by a doctor to do genetic testing on liver function and i tested poor for cocaine and some other substances
Likely to pass. Cleanse yourself well to increase chances.
