    Percocet in blood stream
    Anyone here have any idea how long a percocet will stay in the blood stream?
    I am asking because my sister lost a baby when she was almost 6 months along. Very sad, But I think she may have been popping these pills during her pregnancy. She SAYS that her tox. Came back clean, that she had nothing in her system. BUT I know for a fact she was smoking joints all day every day throughout, so how could her tox show negative?
    Any way the real question is how long does a perc stay in your system
    ( 1 day, 5 days? More days?)
    I know Pot stays in your system 30 or more days, and the day she lost the baby she had smoked.. So she is either lying or the Pill and MJ made her lose the baby..

    Percocet is a brand name for the drug oxycodone, which only stays in the system 1-2 days.

    Seven, no doubt there is an answer to your question, but can I suggest that you drop it? No matter how much "evidence" you compile, she will stick to her story.

    Hi, Seven,
    The drugs may or may not have been the cause of your sister losing the baby. Surely they can't help any, but it isn't a fact that the drugs caused the loss, unless it's contained in her medical records stating it.
    The best thing you can do for your sister is trying talking with her, calmly, and asking her to seek out help for drugs. If she doesn't want to, then there is really nothing else you can do. She has to decide for herself, if she wants to stop drug usage.
    I do wish you and your sister the best.

    Thanks for the info guys, ultimately my sister is not going to admit and never will. I have asked her calmly and she flips out.
    Rick, I was mostly asking for my own piece of mind. I know she's lying, I have no intention of throwing it in her face or accusing. Just needed to know for me.
