Elimination of Cocaine

There is no exact time period for the excretion of cocaine from the body. This is because, its excretion depends upon many factors.

Factors Affecting Excretion of Cocaine

Type and Amount of Cocaine Taken

Cocaine comes in many forms. Also, it may be inhaled, injected or taken orally. The blood concentrations of cocaine vary according to the mode of administration. It is more when inhaled or injected, as the drug enters the blood stream immediately.

The preparation or type of cocaine should also be considered. In US, most of the cocaine available is about 60% pure.

Was Alcohol Consumed Along With the Drug?

The excretion of the drug is much reduced, especially in the initial phase, if alcohol was taken along. Alcohol kind of binds the drug and retains it in the body, impeding its excretion through urine.

Health Status of the Individual

The metabolism and elimination of drug from the body involves chiefly the liver and the kidney. Cocaine is metabolized in the liver into various metabolites, mainly benzoylecgonine. These are then washed off predominantly via urine and partly through feces.

So, the health status of the liver and kidneys become important. If you have a healthy liver, it will be more efficient in removing the drug from the body.

How Skinny You Are?

Thinner individual are lucky here. Cocaine metabolites have a tendency to stick to the fatty tissues of the body. This stored drug is resistant to excretion. It is slowly released into the blood stream to continuously to produce a certain level of drug in the blood.

Activity Status

The elimination of the drug is quicker if an individual is physically active. Better the metabolic rate (BMR), quicker the excretion of drug.

Steps That May Help in Excretion of Cocaine

If you want to cleanse your body quickly, there are steps which may aid you a great deal to excrete this drug from the body.

Eliminating every speck of drug from the body may take time. It may take months or even a year. However, this is not usually required. Bringing the drug level below a threshold value may be achieved.

This value is 100- 150 ng/ml for most of the ordinary urine drug testing kits.

You can do the following to speed up cocaine elimination from the body-

  • Water is the best cleanser. Drink plenty of water.  This increases the renal efficiency and helps in flushing out toxins from the body.
  • Eat seasonal fruits and fresh vegetables as much as possible. They are detoxifiers. They prevent cocaine from sticking to the body tissues and aid in its excretion. Try including a serving of them in each of your meals.
  • Avoid beverages containing caffeine. Caffeine would impede the elimination of cocaine. So, it is better not to take tea, coffee or soft drinks having caffeine as beverages. Instead, you may go for fruit juices, soups or lemonades.
  • Abstain from alcohol completely. Alcohol holds back cocaine in the body and may retard its excretion to a great extent. There are many beverages available in the market that are alcohol based. So, you need to be careful.
  • Stay physically active and exercise on a regular basis. The type of exercise is not so important. You may go for a walk or go to your gym. Swimming is another way to keep your body active.

          I have been using Cocaine for about a month now. Probably 1-2 grams a day. Have been clean from marijuana for over 2 and half months now. I have been taking Xanax as well. I haven’t done coke since Friday night. I don’t drink alcohol at all and hardly drink water and not very active. I have started drinking water today it would be day 3. Haven’t used coke since 2005 before this time. I’m supposed to take a dot test Friday which would be day 7. I took at home test today for shits and giggles after drinking a gallon. Nothing. I don’t have a chance in hell do I.

            Idk why you haven’t answered! I know it’s the holidays. But for any one else who reads this just going through all the same stuff and researching like crazy. Etc. my wife and I went hard for a month. Probably 2 or 3 oz. Idk. But I been drinking almost a gallon a day of water. Maybe 6 17 oz bottles. I ordered the cups off amazon they were t cups. 5 for 30 bucks cut off 300 got Thursday. So if you read above passing with first piss of day. Thursday I looked on Amazon for 150 cut off. Friday came those came I had been drinking water all day. I passed I was like will see in the morning. Those were I think primary cups. 25 for 100. Next morning first pee pass. Today pass. First pee. Still drinking water like crazy and going to continue to. I have like 18 more days. So maybe this will help someone else who’s reading and looking for answers. Thanks.

            No problem I know it was the holidays. Still the question. Even with all these home test passing I should be below 100ng in 10 more days you think?

            Well yes, you have a chance. With 10 more days of aggressive cleansing, you’re likely to bring the levels below 100.

    I’ve been clean from all drugs for 7 1/2 months now. I’ve done about 4.5 grams of cocaine since last Friday. I did have one small drink tonight but I was drinking water as well.

    3 week binge using almost daily with one 4-5 days with no use in between. Drug test coming up within the next 7 days. No prior drug use for about a year. If I aggressively cleanse with water fruit cleansing products vitamins physical activity and going to the sauna everyday until then.

  9. Worried About Test

    I have a question I haven’t really seen asked. Say you pass your home test for coke which has a cutoff level of 300. Any rough idea how much longer it takes to get to the 150 cut off level the lab might use? I know it can vary with weight, amount used, etc. but a rough estimate, maybe another 1 or 2 days? Also, any idea if most tests are checking for Cocaethylene also now?

    Let me add for people checking the comments out. I screwed up and did a bunch of coke (8 ball) in a 2 day period while drinking heavily. I won a jackpot at casino and celebrated. Haven’t did coke in ages and I rarely ever have a drink. Been taking home tests, on the 5th day I got no line on test. 6th day clean I got a hardly visible line which I would consider a fail. 7th day which is today I got a definite line but very light which is supposed to be a pass. So if anyone has my circumstance (large amount, booze) you’ll probably need 7-10 days to be safe and you’ll still have to do everything that helps. Now a small amount should cut off a few days of course and if you didn’t drink that will decrease your time to be clean also.

    Will also add I bought a cheaper test but it only checks for Benzoylecgonine and doesn’t check for Cocaethylene. That test I passed with flying colors today which is my 7th day clean. I’d have to guess that most places will check for both metabolites. Cocaethylene is the metabolite you’ll have if your drinking booze also at the same time so be careful, if your drinking you’ll need more time. I am 6″2, 260 but I am active. Lost 40 pounds since November. If your much smaller that will help shorten your dirty time also.

    I work out 3x a week plus have been hitting treadmill and elliptical hard for last 4 days drenching my clothes with sweat. First 3 days I was recovering, lol. I’m doing vitamins and slamming water all day also and adding 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar 2x daily to water. Just started liver detox also with pills called Liver Support.

    I still have 2 weeks until I possibly get tested. Tests are random but I’m due for a test at my pain management doctor. I guess I can start relaxing since I finally tested negative today at the 300 cutoff. Even if they test at the 150 cutoff I’d have to think in 2 more weeks I’d pass that. That’s why I asked my original question at the beginning.

    NEVER again will I put myself through this, just isn’t worth it. I’ll never touch it again. I want to get back to being totally clean and not have to worry even if they did a hair test.

    1. Buddy M.D. Post author

      May take roughly 3 to 4 days to reduce it further to 150 cut off level.

      It’s easily to check for Cocaethylene simultaneously. So most tests do check it along.

    I split about a gram of cocaine between myself and two other individuals on a friday night up until around 1-2 am and had been drinking quite a bit of beer that night as well. i drank a lot normal amount of water the following days. i didnt attend a sauna but i took a few baths to where i would sweat for a little while. i ate my normal diet, vegetarian nuggets and mashed potatoes mostly for the following days. i have a drug test the tuesday (tomorrow) following the friday of use. i don’t frequently use however i did use the week before but had over a week to get clean so i know my body had flushed out whatever i consumed cause i was tested in that week as well. Tomorrow morning (tuesday, the day of my test) I plan to drink as much water as i can and eat just fruits leading up to my test, maybe do the sweating thing again as well. i’m 5’6 and weigh about 130 pounds. im vegetarian so most of my diet is vegetable and fruit based. do you think i’ll pass the drug test?

    Buddy, thank you for taking time to answer these questions as they are very helpful. However, I have read all your responses and am still a little unclear to the length of time the metabolite cocaethlyne is excreted for a urine test. You say “likely to pass” but are you just referring to a urine test that test for the metabolite benzoylecgonine? Please elaborate as I took a urine test that will be lab tested for both.
    I am actually on probation and stupidly got really drunk on Thursday May 10 until the early hours of Friday May 11(roughly around 3am). I did a minimal amount of cocaine(stupidly), roughly .1 or at most less than .2 grams. I took my urine test on Friday May 18 at around 3 pm(about 7 and 1/2 days later or about 180 hours)This was a one time occurrence as it has been years since I have touched the stuff so I am confident in passing the benzoylecgonine test but I am EXTREMELY concerned about the metabolite cocaethlyne showing up. Can you please elaborate on this metabolite and if I should be concerned??? I am 30 years old in great health- 5’10” 155lbs. I am physically tone and have very little body fat and drink water regularly. I don’t work out but am always physically active playing golf, basketball, and my job has me walking miles daily. Please advise. Thanks you.

      In all likelihood, you’ll be clean for both these metabolites. Since you’re not a regular user of the drug, there,s no reason for this metabolite to stay hidden in your body.

I went home and drank more water, layed out in the sun and sweat for about two hours then around 4pm that same day i had a saliva test, (havent gotten the results back yet) ..

    Is 30 hours enough to drop from 300 ng/ml to 150 ng/ml for benzoylecgonine. Passed a test for 300 ng/ml cutoff on Sunday morning, had a test for 150 ng/ml on tuesday afternoon. Just want to know your opinion on whether or not that is enough time to drop low enough to pass the test. Thanks for your time.

      Yes. Half life for BZE is 12 hours. With normal hydration and urinary excretion, you should be around 30-40 ng in 30 hours. You may receive a non-negative/presumptive positive on the Immunoassay or EMIT screen, however this will be cleared up on the confirmation testing via GC/MS. You will pass.
      However you should stop abusing cocaine.

            Abstain from alcohol. Limit to tea and coffee. Drink plenty of water throughout the day and stay physically active. This would help you sweat and excrete out the drug.

      Would depend upon how well you cleansed yourself during these 28 days! Adequate flushing requires lots of water, fruits and vegetables to detoxify. Also, since caffeine holds back the drug in the body, people who consume excess of it may find it difficult to cleanse themselves.

      However, most cases as yours, have been able to pass the urine drug test, even as low as 30nl/mg.

I might be having to take a drug test on Tuesday, about 4 days from now, will I pass urine test if I drink a lot of water from now till then? I’m 5’8 and 175 lbs.

      Are you a regular user of the drug? If yes, cleansing may require more time. If not, you’ve a good chance to pass out. Follow all steps that help flushing out the drug, as mentioned above in the article.

        I use at the most 1 time per month and it’s never a lot either. It had been about a month since the last time I had used also.

    I’m not a chronic user of cocaine. However, I did probably about .8 on Friday afternoon until 11 pm. I have a drug test Monday afternoon for a new job and I’m freaking out. I smoke cigarettes and I’m not very active. I’m 6’ and 210 lbs. please help!

    Also I had a couple tall boys while doing it but I stopped drinking around 4 am and immediately started drinking water. It’s a UA. If I take a detox drink the day of my test, will I pass?

    I’ve been doing coke somewhat regularly for the last 2 months (maybe a gram a week, if that). I have a drug test in 8 days and have been drinking almost a gallon a cranberry juice in the last 24 hours. And I drink 1 gallon of water daily on top of the juice. I also plan on using my ionic foot bath regularly until the test. What’s the chances of passing?

    if I recently stopped smoking marijuana waited 10 days till the last use let the marijuana grow and expose itself in my hair and then I got a buzz cut due to the fact that there is still marijuana lingering in my system holding on to my fatty tissues would the new hair that grows be contaminated with THC as well or would it be clean the only reason I ask is due to the fact that I know THC is slowly being released into my bloodstream as the fat is processed by your metabolism in order to get energy and nutrients that you need long question short will the new hair be dirty or will the new hair be clean

      Different pills have different actions. So, it’s difficult to say.

      In general, plenty of water is the best way to flush it out. Metabolism can be hastened by consuming fresh fruits and vegetables.

    One time use did maybe 3 small lines at most .2 to .3 grams of cocaine I smoke cigars 2-3 a day, I drink coffee and my preworkout has caffeine I workout 5-6 days a week for about and hour and 15 minutes mostly strength training but always get a good sweat going. I haven’t used any alchohol or anything else in over a year. I have 15 days until I may be drug tested. Will I pass?

    Ok thank you I was also wondering if I cut out coffee completely but still use my preworkout once a day that has 350 mg of caffeine anhydrous will I still have a good chance or should I cut that out to? It helps me push through longer workouts but if it’s a must I can cut it out for the next 15 days

    I’ve done about 2.5 grams of cocaine in the last 72 hours while consuming alcohol each night. I have a saliva test tomorrow. I have been clean for 24 hours already and will have been clean for more than 40 hours at the time of the test. I have ran 2 miles since I found out about the test about 5 hours ago. I have upped my water intake to about a gallon since then as well and plan on drinking a gallon or two tomorrow. I keep very good oral hygeine in these situations and will swish hydrogen peroxide seconds before I go in to take the test. Do you think I’ll pass the test? Are there any other known ways to prevent detection of Benzolecgonine?

    I’m meeting with a recruiter on Monday to take a practice ASVAB test, not sure if he recruiters urine test before you’ve even enlisted but just to be safe last time I did any cocaine was Tuesday night & I did about .5 if not less Along with a good amount of liquor to get me feeling tipsy. Today is Friday & haven’t done any since & don’t plan on doing any. All I drink is water daily & for the most part work out 3-4 times a week. I eat healthy…..but I’ve been a user for a while here & there ONLY when I drink which is 1-2 times a week or more depending on the occasion. I took a home test just now & I definitely came out positive since it’s been 3 days since I last did it.. I might take another home test Saturday & Sunday to be sure. If I don’t pass by Sunday should I consider postponing a few days more until I’m fully clean or do you think I’ll be good to go?

    I am an occasional user of cocaine and have a drug test tomorrow. I used Friday, Saturday and Sunday with a friend which was about 2.5 grams total. Mostly smoking. I didn’t drink with it Friday had a few drinks with lunch Saturday and some rum Sunday after my last smoke. The week before I had used a little Friday night but nothing during the week. Before that had been a month and another month before that. I have been aggressively detoxing and flushing drinking at least a gallon of water along with herbal and detox teas as well as supplementing with cranberry pills, milk thistle and vinegar pills. I have taken shots of apple cider vinegar in the morning and night and also taken detox baths of about 20-30 minutes. Eating veggies and fruits with very limited caffeine 8 oz of coffee in the am and no alcohol since Sunday. I will be taking the test later in the afternoon tomorrow.

          Would also depend upon what threshold have the labs kept for the metabolite. Unless the threshold levels are very low, you have a chance to pass.

    I use 3, maybe 4 times a year. Last month I bought a 5th of vodka and $80+ worth of crack. I believe I drank the vodka within 4 days, smoked the crack in two days. I had a drug test 8 days later. I drink 18-20 glasses of water every day and have for years. I’d never heard of cocaethylene and now I’m absolutely horrified that I may have failed my test. It’s been 3 weeks and I’ve not heard a word from them. What are my odds? Thank you in advance, (And you’d better believe this little episode has scared me straight. NEVER again!)

            If I have to wear the patch for 2 weeks would the chance of a false positive because of contamination from within [prior drug use before the patch was applied] be greater if I am sweating from exercise during this process as my body will sweat out toxins? or make no difference because the toxins through my sweat are too small therefor negligible.

Sunday night i started pounding water heavy and taking niacin and cranberry pills all throughout the night. I’ve been drinking a fruit pectin and a ton of water all on Monday causing me to piss like crazy. I went to the gym Monday morning to workout. I was surprised by a drug test on Monday around 4pm.

    I am a mid-30’s 190 lb, 6’02” male with ~ 24 BMI. I have an average body type (not fat nor skinny) but also do not exercise regularly. I did ~2 grams of almost pure cocaine (nasal) on NYE until about 4 AM on 1/1 while drinking (~ 6 days ago now), I had not used in a month or so before this so I don’t know if that’s a frequent user or not but . I may or may not have an oral/saliva test coming up so I ordered at home saliva tests, I’m worried because I’m still coming up positive (but as more time passes the lessor the results appear to be) I’ve been avoiding smoking, drinking alcohol or doing any other illegal drugs (I’ve drank 4-5 cocktails 1 night since). I’ve also been taking a natural “cleansing” regiment from GNC), avoiding fast foods/crappy foods and eating mainly fruits, veggies and chicken, etc. I’ve been drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day and a protein shakes for lunch.

    My questions are :

    1) is there anything else I can do to speed up my cleansing process besides exercise more? I.E. I’ve read that Green Tea is good but also read it’s not to avoid because of the caffeine in it makes the liver take longer to metabolize.
    2) I’m prescribed Adderall and it is something that I can not use if that is also something that’s slowing down my “system”? Also I occasionally take over the counter medication for backaches, occasional heartburn and such.
    3) I’ve read that “fasting” is both good and bad and am confused about this as well and how to get the metabolites out of my system as quickly as possible.

    I am just confused as to what actually works besides just the passage of time and don’t want to do anything that will actually be adverse to me getting this out of my system.

      You’re likely to be clean before your test.Drinking plentpy of water remains the best way to wash off the drug. Avoiding all alcoholic beverages and caffeine would be important.

      You may avoid adderall, if possible. It may slow down liver processing to some extent.

      Complete fasting is not required. However, taking only fruits and vegetables in your meals may speed up detoxification.

    I took an etg dip strip test around 9am this morning, Monday. The test line appeared quite faint, but visible. I will be doing another test strip around noon, after some cardio(3 miles) and 20 min steam room. Also, I plan to take a 3rd test strip at approximately 230pm today from an independent testing facility and will have that sent to a lab for further testing. I will up date with results

        Here are the results. I’ll start first with the at home tests that I completed from Tuesday(Monday results are above). By the way, the 230pm test that was done at an independent testing facility, also showed a very faint line on the instant dip stick. I had that sample sent to a lab as well. So Tuesday morning I tested my 2nd void(urine) of the day, and there was no line seen on the test strip. Not good. I drank more water throughout the day and did another dip strip test again at 230pm. That test did show a faint line. Wednesday morning I tested my first void and again, no line. Test at 230pm(after water, pedialyte, coffee, aspirin, b-complex) showed a faint line. However, I’m convinced that any voids that I’m using at this point is diluted. If this sample were to be given to my probation officer, I’m sure it would be considered dilute and possibly determined to be a positive. Keep in mind, the tests that I’m referring to are etg tests, not testing for cocaine matabolite. We’ll get to that soon. I was able to stall my po test up until Wednesday afternoon. By this time even without excessively drinking any trace of etg should have been metabolize of the alcohol consumed friday night.
        I received the lab results of my Monday afternoon test and it came back negative at a 500ng/ml cutoff. So I would hope that it’s safe to assume that my Wednesday po test would have the same finding. Unless they test at a much lower cutoff(100ng, 250ng, 300ng).
        Now the cocaine tests. Same routine as above, same two a day, same times. A line did not appear until my last test on Wednesday afternoon. That being said, approximately .2g of cocaine metabolite was detected almost 90hrs after use. And undetected at 110 hrs.
        All these results are from drinking massive amounts of water and pedialyte, mixed in some vitamins as well.
        Good luck to all!

    I have liver stones and feel like cocaine is helping flush them out of my liver and tend to release more liver stones when I do liver flushes…. Do you have any knowledge on this?

      Cocaine constricts our blood vessels, resulting in an elevation of blood pressure. This may increase chances of getting a heart attack or stroke in people already prone to it.

    Hi, please help.

    I have a PO urinalysis on Tuesday at 5.30pm. On Saturday night from 12am to Sunday Morning 7am I did about 3 small lines of Cocaine. So aprox 60 hours between last use and my test coming up.

    Prior to this have not used cocaine or other drugs for years. However I did drink a lot of alcohol Saturday night. I’ve been drinking about 3/4 litres of water a day, attending sauna today and will attend tomorrow mixed with running on the treadmill, eating plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables and drinking cranberry juice.

    Will I pass the test?

      Cleanse yourself very aggressively during the time available. Steps mentioned above may help.

      Since this was a one time usage, there’s a chance you may pass.

    Got it rescheduled for next Monday 3.30pm so now I have over 8 days to cleanse.

    I checked on the dipstick home tests today an hour before the urinalysis and it showed a very positive reading which was at the 59 hour mark.

    Will I definitely be clean, below 150 reading if it was a one time use? Never used cocaine before. I’m just worried because I’ve cleansed thoroughly and it was still positive today.

      You’ve enough time in hand now. Keep cleansing.

      Though the threshold to pass has been kept very low, there’s a good chance for you to pass a urine screening.

    Matt if you read my above replies you’ll see that it’s not possible. I was a first time user and did aggressive cleansing and I was still positive after 60 hours.

    I just got out of prison,I went out last night “friday”. I consumed about a twelve pack of beer and sadly I did two scoops of cocain off a car key. I’m not a regular user as I stated I just got out . I might have a drug test Monday morning. My weight is 168 lbs I do no drugs period just that one time. What are the chances the test will come out positive?

    I take random drug test every second Wednesday of every month with another before the month ends. I last used in September 7-14. I heavily used from Feb. 2 until Feb. 10 with one day in that time frame of no use. I have sweated in my sleep since then berg profusely, I’ve drank herbal and black tea, I’ve drank loads of water, and have regained my appetite. As of yesterday, I started eating vitamin candies, and drinking fruit juice and green tea. How soon do you think I could pass a Urine Immunoassay drug test. I have to drug test for drug court and I’m sure if I can get through this week I should be okay. I’m 6’1 -145(roughly, maybe less) and very skinny.

    I also drank maybe every other day while doing the drug. I don’t smoke, and don’t drink for 3 months prior to any cocaine use.

    Will 16 and a half days be enough time to pass a lab test with a threshold of 150/100 after using a gram of cocaine and drinking? I hadn’t used any prior or had I consumed alcohol and generally don’t. I do however take many prescribed medications and I am 42, 5’6 and 150 lbs.

      Stick to the cleansing regimen as detailed below. You’re likely to clear the oral test. Blood test may however, not be clean so soon.

    So do random small amounts of cocaine few time a week while drinking last time done was early Thursday morning, have a test on monday,
    Already started the heavy drinking of water and taking zinc, b vitamins , and avoided drinking and caffeine sodas.
    going to start cranberry juice in the mix too

    What are the odds of a pass or an invalid?

      Would depend upon the exact amount of cocaine consumed. Usually takes around a week to cleanse.

        A half g lasts a few days. mainly key bumps to maintain so hard to judge the amounts…
        so not looking good. that was my guess as well

      If you’re a regular user of the drug, this time period may not be enough to cleanse you adequately.

    So I binged about a gram of cocaine over 36 hours 8 days ago, then also had 3 small lines on Friday late evening, 2 days ago. Both instances came with moderate levels of drinking. Did not consume anything prior to that.
    I am about to have a UA pre-employment 5 panel test on this coming Friday, So approx 7 days since last use.
    I am 5’10” and about 180lbs. I have been drinking water heavily and some 100% cranberry juice, taking 7 day cleanse purely inspired pills, eating only veggies and lean meat. Do you think I will pass?
    Thank you for your time

      Likely to pass. Just continue cleansing yourself. Abstaining from alcohol would be very crucial, as it holds back the drug in the body.

          Benzoylecgonine takes longer to disappear from the body, particularly in regular consumers of the drug.

        Because you’re a chronic user, the drug is likely to be concentrated in your body. You’ll need to cleanse yourself very aggressively, taking all possible steps.

        Avoid alcoholic beverages, limit to caffeine intake. Consume plenty of seasonal fruits and veggies in your diet. Exercise and drink adequate water.

    I have been using inhaled cocaine for around the last 7-8 months, at least 1-1.5 grams a day. I am 5’9” 160 lbs. There has been a few benders and all nighters mixed in over those months where usage may have been closer to 2-2.5 grams per session. Alcohol was used very rarely but started recently having a few sips while indulging. My diet is not good and with the level and frequency of my use there are many days I didn’t eat much at all. During my sessions I normally drink 2-3 bottles of water. I have outstanding labs ordered by my VA team which includes a urinalysis drug screen. There is no required time I must take test I can go in at my convenience and have them done. How many days sober should I wait before I go in and do the labs? Exactly how much water should I be drinking during my cleanse? Thank you in advance.

      Adopt a cleansing diet and lifestyle and wait for around a month to be safe for the test. 7 to 8 liters of healthy fluids may be taken in the form of water, fruit juices or soups. Apart from this, diet rich in seasonal veggies and fruits. Restrict to tea and coffee. Avoid alcohol.

    I’m 200ish lbs, I sweat alot, I’m drinking a lot of water, as of now I’m avoiding everyone, I don’t know what I was thinking because I am not a cocaine user I was just curious I guess. It wasn’t a scoop or anything just a little dip, I was shocked it even showed up on the 500nl 5 panel. I just need to know how long until I should be good please and thank you
