How Long Does Oxycodone Stay In The Body?

Posted on Wed, 2 Jul 2014

Question: I'm asking how long (100 pills) 5/325 oxycodone stay in the system of a 5'4", 115lb female. These pills were taken over a 4 day period. The blood and urine were sent to a lab. I'd like to know the absolute longest time possible that it will stay in ur system because I'm getting conflicting answers. The tests are taking 2 weeks to come back to the doctor so I'm wondering what the most advanced testing possible would show a positive result.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I went through your query and understood your concerns.

You have taken 100 pills over 4 days which is not normal treating dose, taken more than required. It do take more time to clear from body as half life is 3 to 4 hour , it may take 2or 3 days to clear from body. It also depends on condition of your kidney and liver. If they are not working optimally may take longer time to excrete medication from body.

Hope I answered your query. Feel free to ask further related query.
