How Long Does Heroin Stay Your System For A Drug Test

Serious question as most of yours are. I've been clean for 3 months and decided to use again on Friday around 8 am. I had a urine test done on Tuesday night around 7 pm. I'm 39 yrs old, 5.5 and 135 lbs. I totally wasn't expecting one being done so therefore wasn't prepared at all. No drinking large amounts of water but yes I do work out. Honestly what do you think my chances are of passing? I'll know for sure next Tuesday but my nerves are really starting to get to me. I know I won't be doing this crap to myself any time soon again.

i know i need at Least a week to test clean. People vary - my p.o. at the time never did believe me about that - wrote me for 2 dirties. Used on a Sunday, tested dirty that Tues, and again that Thursday - He thought I must have used again after Sunday and gave me 3 months.

This question was asked a few months ago -
Did you pass? It's good info to know for you and the rest of us here.
No judging. for those trying to stop using, Relapse IS part of the recovery process. First you're clean a few weeks, then a few months, then a year, then years - So if you slip up it iisn't a fail - it's ok. you don;t have Zero-Days Sober. thats what i disliked about the NA's and all the As - "Now I have Zero!" No dude, you had 3 clean months, and you used, re-remembered how crap that life was and stop (if you're lucky - and since you were alive to post this, you were.. you didn't o.d. or get bad crap or 10,000 other un-change-able things) - and you can make a choice again.

Those of us who've been there know - hang strong.
peace.

I get deathly sick from subutex and suboxone. I was in a terrible fishing accident when I was just a little kid and ive been on high doses of opiets for 19years. Everytime ive tried either one of those I get sooo sick. Only thing I can take is methadone.

Yeah I had that problem cause I was taking to many at a time it sound retarded what I'm getting ready to say but the best way to get clean is go to jail for something miner cause I just did for two months and that was the best rehab but I'm clean and feel great and don't even crave it. Well maybe once in a while but then ill go workout

Well I think it takes a long time. I'm not an IV user, but tried some H and the stuff was crap. This was Tues. And on Thurs. They popped me with a urine test. I wear a 100 mcg. fentenyl patch and 15 mg. oxy 4 times a day and didn't pass.

MELISSSA SMORES: As much as u would like to feel he is the only one with this problem-- HE IS NOT!!!! But, I can say from experience, he has to want it, in order for anything to work for him. If the suboxone or subtex is not working for him, then he may not be ready to give it up. Wishing the best for u and ur boyfriend-- Prayers for the 2 of you!!

Alot of people on here sound like little scary ass kids looking for some reassurance from Mom and Dad after they know they have done something wrong. Unfortunately I am a 35 year old drug addict on parole in two different states. I just shot a 20 a couple hours ago and I gotta report the day after tomorrow. It's all about what the total amount is in your system and how early you get up the morning of your test and pound water rigorously. I'm confident to be cool. It may be different if I've been using everyday for a while, then I would give myself 3 good days for sure and still drink the water.

Yes heroin is expelled and metabolized rather rapidly as opposed to other illicit drugs of abuse HOWEVER MOST of the stuff coast to coast now contains very little H and lots of enhancing adulterants the most of these the SYNTHETIC OPIOID fentanyl which potenates trash heroin . So the 72-96 hour rule of thumb for heroin metabolism and excretion no longer holds true. I see the effects and results on a daily basis . If your lucky you'll pop + if your not you may never make it to your next drug screen.I speak as a recovering addict working in the field every time results are delivered my heart bleeds bc I know what it took me to get right. No one should have to loose EVERYTHING before finding meaningful recovery but some times failing legit drug screens is what it takes to make that life change. Everyone DESERVES THAT RIGHT..
EVERYONE DESERVES TO LIVE FREELY........God bless to ALL

Morphine is basically synthetic heroin. I was a user of the best h you can get on the west coast and after a few years of it I got clean until I broke my neck and back in a few places in an avalanche while going way too big for the slope and got put on the morphine while I was in the hospital and have been on something " opite" related ever since going on 20 + years of the best h you can get. The legal kind from a drug dealer who has a lot of stuff like degrees and I have to make an appointment with his receptionist
Sorry but I can't believe that this would happend to be a faulty test two times in a row as far as I can see you can't get it through sex even a lot of sex or a lot of drug use by the other side

As well as we both know, that its hard to turn down when you were addicted. And still an addict. But for you to put that "I feel sorry for you" and everything else you said, was quite rude and ignorant!! You don't have the right to judge. And if you have never been there (like I, never was addicted) then you should say what you did. Whether you've tried it or not, this site is used to help give people the information that they know and have experienced. Not to tell them they are dumb for doing that after being clean for months. Compassion to those is what's needed. Not big put downs!!!!

If it was heroin, u should be fine. Its gotta fast half life. Rule of thumb is about 72 hours, but swims passed a test after using the day before. Opiates. Especially heroin get out fairly fast. U should be good.

Methadone is the devil. It definitely helps you w withdrawal s but to get on a methadone regimine is like trading that monkey on your back for a freaking gorilla!. Clinics start u out pretty high mgs, but you better be ready to be on it for a long time, sometimes years. If something happens, jail time, can't get a ride to clinic, anything, the withdrawal s from that stuff makes heroin WD a walk in the park. Prepare for the worst experience of your life. Swim couldn't sleep for 19 days, no joke. It lasts for months, and is so much worse that heroin wds. The only way to come off of methadone is to get back on h. Period
