Swim is prescribed 3 40ml oxy's a day but does not take them. They have a blogs test tomorrow. How long before the treat should they take one half of an 80ml in order for it to show up? Will the doc know they are not taking them regulary?

Oxycodone is usually detectable between 2 and 7 hours after taking it.

And yes, if they are checking your levels of it, rather than just checking for the presence of the opiate, then they will know that you aren't taking them as prescribed, because your levels will be too low.

Learn more Oxycontin details here.

And if you're taking Oxycontin, then it isn't safe to cut it in half, because that may result in your getting far too much of the medication.

Is there anything else I can help with?
