Due to the latest news on Teebillz supposed Pathology report which claimed he was Negative to all the drug test he took two days ago, i decided to do a little research on Cocaine tests and below are some of my findings.

How Long Does Cocaine Stay in Your System? Benzoylecgonine Drug Detection Test

Cocaine stays in your system for 12-72 hours depending on the dose. But it’s metabolite takes much longer to get eliminated.

Benzoylecgonine is the main metabolite of cocaine, which is used in drug screening test. Many factors determine how quickly it gets cleared from the body.

It is also used medically as a topical analgesic and muscle relaxant, as in prescription drug Esterom, which is used for myalgia.

When a person takes cocaine (chemically benzoylmethylecgonine), it gets metabolized in the liver to form benzoylecgonine. The metabolite is then excreted out of the body via urine.

The presence of this metabolite is almost a certain indication that a person has consumed the drug.

Therefore, in cocaine users, benzoylecgonine testing in urine is commoner than testing of cocaine itself.
Time Taken by a Drug to Get Eliminated From the Body
How much time a drug takes to get eliminated out of the system would depend upon:

The amount of drug taken.
How frequently or regularly you are taking it?
Individual body weight and height.
Your overall rate of metabolism, which depends on your levels of activity and health status.

How Long Does Cocaine Stay in Your System and Urine?

Cocaine usually gets eliminated from urine in 12 hours. However, if the dose is heavy, it may take about 72 hours. After this period it is usually not detected in urine.

However, there is an exception. If a large quantity of alcohol has also been consumed with cocaine, it takes even longer to eliminate- 5 days approximately. It also leads to the formation of a metabolite called Cocaethylene.

And how long does coke metabolite benzoylecgonine stay in your system and urine?

Benzoylecgonine takes longer to get eliminated. Even if the amount of cocaine was very less, minimum time for it to get eliminated is 4-5 days.

In case of heavy use, it may take around 10 days. If you are a regular user, even if you take little amounts, elimination time is around 20 days.

Again, if alcohol is also being taken along, then around 25 days or even a month are required for complete elimination of the drug.

Taking adequate water helps in speedy elimination. On the other hand, alcohol and caffeinated drinks hold back this metabolite in the body and delay the elimination process.
Threshold Value for Detection

Levels of 2 ng/mL or more produce a positive drug test result.
Half Life

Around 30 to 40% of cocaine or crack is metabolized by enzymes in the liver to form ecgonine methyl ester. Another 30 to 40% is hydrolyzed spontaneously without enzymes to form benzoylecgonine.

Both of them are water soluble compounds and are active. While cocaine has a half life of 1 hour, benzoylecgonine has a half life of 6 hours.

Types of Drug Screening

Saliva test– Cocaine is detectable in saliva after 5 to 10 minutes of taking the drug. It may be detected in saliva till 2 to 4 days.

Urine test– Detectable after 2 to 5 hours of use, till a period of 3 to 4 days.

Blood testing is more specific. The drug is detected after 5 to 6 hours till around 5 to 7 days or even more.

Hair test– The drug starts showing in hair after 5 to 7 days till around 80 to 90 days.

Urine testing is most popular because it is painless, easy and inexpensive. Home kits available in the market are also based on urine testing.

Detection in Chronic Users

In long-term or regular users, the drug is stored in the fatty tissues, especially that of the liver. After each use, a fraction of the drug consumed is stored, adding up to the stock each time.

This stored drug is released on a continuous basis into the blood stream. So the user is detected positive even if he hasn’t taken the drug for some time.

Total cleansing of the user takes 5 to 6 months, after which he may be called drug-free.
what do you think?, does his drug test report completely debunk Tiwa's claims on his drug usage?.

I no know wetin to talk about this couple..... Them fit still come back after this gara-gara

Nigeria we dey jooorh!!!! And maybe that's why he barbs twice a week tho

Nice research..but do you mean to say that report could be fake??or not accurate because of the timing ..dnt stress your head op,the truth'll reveal itself one day jare.

Passing a hair drug test is difficult but not impossible. You can try various methods to pass a drug test but you will see low accuracy. Well, The Macujo method with aloe rid products on [url=macujo.com]macujo.com[/url] are a key component in passing your hair test. Using the Macujo Method with any other shampoo is not recommended. You should try the macujo shampoo. People have been trying this method and getting the expected results. You can check the details and the whole process that you have to follow in order to pass a test.
