Hi, I would like to know how long does vicodin stay in your system? I don't want people's guesses, but a qualified person like a doctor or chemist or someone who works in a lab. I have to go to a pain management doctor and I have to take a drug test. He wants a urine test done. I had taken 5 pills for 2 days. (total of 10 pills) They were 7.5 mg. This was before I went to him. I hope someone can help me please.
Thank you for your time.

The PDR says that the half-life is 3.8 hrs which means that in 5x the half life almost all will be gone (about 20 hrs)

For Aceteminophin 85% of the dose appears in Urine 24 hours after administration. This is the other component of Vicodin.

You get what you get when you post a question like this. I hope you get the help that you need, but try not to dictate who does, or doesn't, answer your question. We're not the ones who took the drugs without a prescription, right?

Look at the posts that KBC gave you, and find your answer.

Let's do a little figgerin'. If you are going to a pain doctor for the first time the test will probably be a 5-panel screen which checks for illegal opiates. Probably an on-site immunoassay. These screens usually do not detect Vicodin or semi-synthetic opioids of any type. The synthetics and semi's require a lower threshold test. Sometimes the IAs do return a positive for morphine, however even in that case, the more sensitive confirmatory test (GC/MS) will then negate that result.

So chances are that you will squeeze by this time. However, in all likelihood the pain medication prescribed will be of the Vicodin class (semi-synthetic opioid) and there are specific, low threshold tests available to test for this specific class of drug.

The odds are in your favor in this particular instance. Not assured but I can't imagine an initial screening being more particularized. Too expensive.

All of the pain doctors and clinics are running scared at the present time so you may expect to be checked regularly for compliance.
