I do not take suboxone daily. But I took two suboxone gummy in two days. I am about 115 pounds. I was wondering how long this will stay in my system for a drug test?

Buprenorphine.com, a non-profit division of the U.S. National Institutes of health, states that Suboxone has a half-life of 24-60 hours. This means that the drug has the potential to control opioid cravings over that time span.

Half-life here means that, say, 30 hours after ingesting Suboxone, half of the active amount will be gone. This doesn't mean that 30 hours later, though, the other half will be gone. At that point half of the remainder will be gone, then another half after the same time interval, and so on, until the drug is eliminated from the body.

Many medical experts agree that after about 5 half lives, the drug is completely out of your system; although I'm sure it varies to some degree for each individual.

I hope this helps to answer your question! What date are you supposed to have your drug test?
