No long, a day or two at most.

1-3 days in urine, 24 hrs in blood, 3 mos in hair. Be warned if you are considering detox products, cuz some tests can detect them.

You are stupid to stay with a guy who would jeopardize his future for some crack. I hope he tests positive, gets reported to the police, and goes to jail like he deserves.

Detection periods

The following chart gives approximate detection periods for each substance by test type. The ranges depend on amount and frequency of use, metabolic rate, body mass, age, overall health, and urine pH. For ease of use, the detection times of metabolites have been incorporated into each parent drug. For example, heroin and cocaine can only be detected for a few hours after use, but their metabolites can be detected for several days in urine. In this type of situation, we will report the (longer) detection times of the metabolites.

NOTE 1: Oral fluid or saliva testing results for the most part mimic that of blood. The only exception is THC. Oral fluid will likely detect THC from ingestion up to a maximum period of 18-24 hours.
NOTE 2: Urine can not detect current drug use. It takes approximately 6-8 hrs. post-consumption for drug to be metabolized and excreted in urine. Similarly, hair requires two weeks, and sweat, seven days.
SUBSTANCE URINE HAIR BLOOD
Alcohol 3-5 days via Ethyl Gluconoride(EtG) metabolite 12 hours
Amphetamines (except meth) 2 to 3 days up to 90 days 12 hours
Methamphetamine 2 to 5 days up to 90 days 24 hours
Barbiturates (except phenobarbital) 2 to 3 days up to 90 days 1 to 2 days
Phenobarbital 7 to 14 days up to 90 days 4 to 7 days
Benzodiazepines 1 to 5 days up to 90 days 6 to 48 hours
Cannabis 3-5 days(1 to 3 days if the use is single, and up to 30 days in limited instances) up to 90 days 2 days
Cocaine 1 to 3 days up to 90 days 24 hours
Codeine 2 to 3 days up to 90 days 12 hours
Cotinine (a break-down product of nicotine) 2 to 4 days up to 90 days 2 to 4 days
Morphine 2 to 3 days up to 90 days 6 hours
Heroin 2 to 3 days up to 90 days 6 hours
LSD 2 to 24 hours unknown 0 to 3 hours
PCP 5 to 7 days up to 90 days 24 hours

he’s SOL! Why are u lecturing him? The bottom line is some people get hooked on the first try. He was willing to risk everything for a high… So if he’s that dumb to try crack while trying to find a job… why would u bother to stick with him?

This is a huge red flag of the kind of life ur headed into. U need to go to counselor, they are minimal cost at your local health dept. U lacking something in ur own life to be in luv with a dope.

Look… Some one who does a drug like that knowing he has interveiwed for a job and would likly have to take a drug test is not too bright. Taking drugs like crack is also very selfish and dangerous. If he cared about you and you furture together he wouldnt have done it. He could have died that night ir became a “crack head” with just one use. This is not something to be taken lightly and giving him another chance is not a good idea. Do an experiment for me. Grab another person and try to lift them onto a chair…It’s really hard, now have that person stand on the chair and try to pull them off. It’s much easier. It’s easier for him to pull you down into that life style then it will be for you to lift him out of it. Take advice for someone who used to have alot of friends who decided to go down that road. Only they can help them selves. Dont let him beleive that you will stick with him even when he endangers you and everyone around him. Walk away.

If he is lucky enough to pass the piss test it won’t do any good because he’s already tried it and will do it again and that 28 dollar an hour job will just give him more money to spend on it. So sorry but I hope he don’t pass it and a drug free man with a family that needs the money gets the job.
