It also depends a lot on when you took the 10mg Lortab and afterwards, the length of time you have before your drug test.

Lortab has a half-life of roughly 3.8 hours. This means that 3.8 hours after the dose you took, half of the original dose is still present and active in the body. After another 3.8 hours (or 7.6 hours total), half of what was left after the first 3.8 hours is present and active (one-quarter of the original dose).

Most pharmacists consider that after three to five "half-lives," close to 90% of the drug has been eliminated and is no longer affecting the body. The maximum wait to achieve five half-lives for Lortab would be: 5 x 3.8 = "19 hours". But it could be less, based on other aspects of your health being in good standing, such as exercise, diet, age, weight, etc.

Hopefully this chart below can help you determine how long one-10mg pill stays in your system:
Monday at 12pm--Took 10mg of Lortab. 10mg Lortab active in body.
4pm--first half life; 5mg of Lortab still active in body.
8pm--second half life; 2.5mg of Lortab still active in body.
Midnight--third half life; 1.25mg of Lortab still active in body.
Tuesday at 4am--fourth half life; 0.625mg of Lortab still active in body.
8am--fifth half life; amount of Lortab in the body is negligible and no longer having any effect.
