    Why does it matter ? It would not fair you on a drug test that I am aware of ? ( assuming this is an issue)
    Very short day or two at the most, but I can't see it being there an issue

    Xanax, a Benzodiazepine, will stay in your urine anywhere from 1 - 42 days. It is currently unknown how long they stay in saliva, blood, and hair.

    Well, I may be able to help you with this. I took a single dose of Xanax (0.50 MG) 3 weeks ago then about 2 weeks later I took another single dose of Xanax (0.50 MG) 178 hours ago (7 days, 10 hours) and purchased a 12 panel home drug test kit at wal-mart for $35 (First Check Home Drug Tests - the most advanced home drug and health tests. Home Drug Test Information. - Inverness Medical for more information) then piss tested myself (178 hours have passed since my last dose of xanax & 168 hours have passed since my last dose of Oxycodone (15 MG) ) and passed the test (without dilution)

    Cut off levels are 100 ng/l for Oxycodone & 300 ng/l for Benzos.

    I was told since xanax has only a 12 hr. halflife(the shortest of any benzo) its passed in urine way faster than other benzos which I know for sure can stay in urine for up to 30 days I was told xanaxx should not be detected after 3 days but other benzos way longer. Is this true

    How long does xanax bars 2 mg get out your system if you been taking it everyday for a year or more?

    The duration of your Xanax use will definitely weigh on how long the drug can be detected in your urine. If you have been taking a moderate to high dosage for a year, you will need at least 5 to 7 days for the drug to be undetected in your urine. However, you DO NOT want to stop Xanax cold turkey unless your life depends upon it. People withdrawing from Xanax and similar drugs have been known to experience fatal seizures and other horribly dangerous symptoms. I realize the importance of passing a urine screen. I take one monthly and my life depends upon it. However, please PLEASE be extra careful. Good luck to you and I hope you fare well.

    If you are being urine screened for a job, you may not even be tested for Xanax. However, probation or clinical settings will call for a full panel screening. Since you have been using the drug for a year or more and it is a moderate dosage, you will need to give yourself 5-7 days for the drug to be undetectable in the urine. However, you do not want to withdraw from Xanax cold turkey without medical attention close by. You could suffer from fatal seizures or other horrible withdrawal symptoms. Please be careful and good luck.

    I have 2 answers from 2 different doctors that have suboxone programs, for which benzos are a big NoNo!!
    The 1st doctor said 72 hours, and the 2nd doctor said 7 days. I am a LPN and was taught in Pharmacology that it was 30 days. So where the truth lies I don't know but if anyone can figure it out let me know so I can actually pass a drug screen with my own urine.
