drug test

yes I was in to take a drug test this morning, and failed on the basis of having vicodin in my system. first of all I do not use drugs, but have taken pain killers in the last few days because of a bad tooth, so is there a way that on a drug test they can tell that it was just my rx or does it just show up as an opiate

Hydrocodone is free from your system in 2-4 days.  Heavy use or higher doses can sometimes extend that period.  I always stop about 3 days before and drink lots of fluids.  Good luck.

I smoked methamphetamine last night for about 6 hours....I had maybe 6-8 "hits". It had been the first time I'd done it in about 2 months. Since 6:00am I've drank a huge jug of water and a bottle of cranberry juice. Now if my info is correct meth is water saluable. Therefore I should be in the clear for my drug test tomorrow at 4:00 pm. Right?

I recently got the hook up on a beer delivery job. Ihave to take a urine test soon. I am a chronic head,been smoking ever since I was 15, now I'm 23. All I have been doing is drinking lots of water and sweating alot. I have also been quit smoking for about 1 week(FOR GOOD). I'm scared because of my choice of wanting to smoke weed, may result in me not getting the job I want. Do you think by sweating and drinking alot of water "ll pass the test.

I am so worried I took a drug test today and forgot to add that I had taken Lortab(hydrocodone) a half a pill about 10 days ago. They told me if I didnt pass I wouldnt hear from them. But the test takes about 5 days to get back. Im sooo worried. I totally forgot it was a very stressful 6 hr hiring process.Who can tell me how long it stays in your system?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

  yes it does show up as an opiate on a drug test, i have found that it is safer to ask the doctor for a non-narcotic pain-killer, that will help just as much and they are not addicting.

This is not really the forum for getting information on how to beat a drug test.  Although I don't endorse beating drug tests,  I do believe in the freedom of information.  Therefore, post your question on alt.drugs.hard and I'm sure someone will answer.

True hydrocodone will usually only be picked by a drug screen for about 2 days after use.

They can tell that it wasn't heroin and if you explain about the Vicodin you should have no problem.
