Brief Answer:
can be detected in hair follicle upto 3 months.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.

Lortab has hydrocodone and acetaminophen.

It can be detected in hair follicle as long as three months after last intake.

However, the drug detection depends on several other factors like body metabolism, age, gender, weight etc.

No one can predict with certainty, whether you will test positive or not. But since you have used the drug only occasionally, there are chances that you may pass the test.

Hope this helps.
Wish you good luck.
