How Long Does Vicodin Stay In Your System?

Answer Question

    It depends on your liver and kidneys since they are the major metabolizers of narcotics. For hydrocodone, it usually takes 4 to 8 hours.

    I have a question for anyone. I take 15mg Oxycodone 1-2 pills every 6hrs, and I also take 50mg of the Fentanyl patches that last me 3dys. Now I took a Vicodin on Wednesday and I have an appointment on this following Wednesday at the Pain Clinic and which I know that they will give me drug test and I also know that there drug tests are really extreme, so I want to know if I am going to be able to pass the test or am I going to get kicked out because I really have a reason why I take pain killers and the only reason why I took a Vicodin was because someone got into my medicine and therefore I was short and so I had to expand what I had left so that I would not run out before I got my prescriptions again and so I took the Vicodin because I was in so much pain. Now the Vicodin was only 1 and it was a 7.5. Does anyone know or think I will be able to pass this test? And also I don't drink a lot of water so am I shit out of luck now?

    I recently had a 10 panel drug screening done, I ate 5 vicodin on a sunday and the following thursday (4 days later) took the test and passed! Keep in mind i did drink plenty of water a few days prior to having the test. Also it could be longer if you eat them on a regular basis.

      Vicodin is a pain killer which is also an opiate, and could cause damage to the liver if used in high doses over a long period of time. It can also prove to become very addictive if used extensively, and those taking vicodin on a regular basis may experience withdrawal symptoms like lack of sleep, uneasiness etc.

      The dosage of vicodin totally depends on individual factors like weight, age and also what other medication is currently being consumed by the patient.

      Vicodin, if taken on a regular basis, can be detected in the urine for a considerably long period of time. Generally a drug screen is used for employment purposes and vicodin showing up in the drug screen depends on factors like what kind of drug screen is used etc. Usually the drug stays in the system for around 24 to 36 hours, although one should stop taking in five days in advance to be completely sure.

        There is not a fixed duration as it depends on the amount of intake and the metabolism of your body. But normally it will remain in your body for at least 5 days.

        Vicodin is a brand name which consists of a mixture of acetaminophen and hydrocodone. Some chemicals are said to remain in body for about 72 to 78 hours. It is said that vicodin effects remain in ones body for 72 hours if it is purpose for a drug test.

        Otherwise vicodin for the pain killing affects will stay for like 4 hours in ones system.

          From my experience vicodin is usually out of your system within 3 days along with most other opioids. However each person is different and it may be longer.
