Vicodin Xanax

I have been clean off vicodin and xanax for 2 weeks, but my urine drug test, still comes out positive.  How is this so?

Benzos stay in your system for a really long time.  I'm sure that's why you tested positive.  2 weeks isn't nearly long enough.  I read that takes months.

I had the same problem when I started at the clinic, after taking pills for so long your liver enzymes tend to get high. Which in turn makes it filter slower, I'm no doctor but this is the way I understand itn
