Brief Answer:
you may pass the drug test.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concerns.

Valium has a long half life averaging to 2-3 days in an otherwise healthy individual.

Usually a drug takes upto 5 half lives to get eliminated from body.

In my opinion, drug may be clear by 3rd XXXXXXX when you go for drug test as you have used the drug just for once.

But, Here I would like to mention that there is no sure shot way to determine the exact time in which drug is eliminated from the system.

You also need good luck.

Hope this helps.
Kindly close the discussion if you have no more queries and give your valuable feedback.

Thanks.
