Hi fholly,
I don't have any hard and fast answers for you, but hopefully the info will help. Have been on vicodin many times and always have to disclose this to my Probation Officer. If I do a drug test, all he wants or needs to know about is "any thing that has been taken in the 5(five) previous days. Pretty sure it should be out within a matter of days, but everyone metabolizes differently. Good Luck!

most chemicals will stay in your system from 72 to 78 hours. chemicals will stay in your hair and your body's fatty tissue for years. best not to do them at least 5 to 7 days prior to a probation visit that you will be requested to to a drop. erbs stay for over 30 days so best to just quit that until probation is over.

hydrocodone metabolizes into hydromorphone, hydromorphone doesnt metabolize into anything so i would not worry about a drug test when taking vicodin.

Hi I have a problem with the same thing. I have to drop urine tomorrow for probation and i took some Vic Es's midday yesterday. Just wondering if anyone knows anyways to get it out of my system faster. I took a niacin this morning, and will drink lots of water and cranberry juice to dilute my urine, any other suggestions?

You do have to worry about hydromorphone showing up..there are various levels of testing and how many tests are ordered will depend if it shows up....

Hmmm, that all depends on how much you took, for how long and why you really want to know. If it's for a new job screen, then an "insta-cup" will show you clean in about 72 hours if you flush with lots of fluids. If you have been taking a bunch for a long time, and, you are being tested by any other means than an "insta-cup," it could take a week to 10 days. Lastly, if you are having hair folicol testing performed, you might be looking at months. Good Luck

Not to long ago I had to take a pre-employment drug screen.
I have a script for norco, I had it filled the night before the test, i took several of them and had
the test at around nine the next morning.
I asked her if she wanted to know what i was taking, she said no. she stuck the strip in the urine, watched it a few minutes and then asked what i was taking.
I told her it was hydro and took the last one the night before and asked her if she wanted to see the RX receipt, she said no because i tested negative.
I find it hard to believe that it hadnt had time to metabolize because i took the first one about 24 hours before and the last one about 12 hours before the test, i took about 10 total.
So, either her test strip was flawed or i have a VERY fast metabolism.
