How Long Does Cotinine Take To Clear Off From The Body?
I will be having mouth swab testing for Cotinine in 19 days. I have been using nicorette mini lozenges 2mg for over a year so that I will not smoke cigarettes. Total approx 10 mg daily. If I stop using the lozenges now, how soon will Cotinine clear my body? I am female, 115 lbs.
