Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

The half life of Morphine sulphate ( MSIR ) is 2 to 4 hours. Its the period of time for the amount of drug in the body to be reduced by one-half. Since you took 15 mg, it would take approximately 24 hours for the drug to be eliminated and stop appearing in the urine. It would require at least 24 hours , provided you don't have significant renal dysfunction before you test negative for the drug.


Wishing you best of health

Thanks

Please consult your doctor before deciding on any further course of action.
