How Long Does 10mg Valium Stay In A Urine Test?

How long does 2 10 mg Valium stay in a urine test? I'm recovering from opiate addiction, & am taking suboxone 8/2. I have weekly test done. I had a angioplasty done, & was given those to calm my nerves. The hospital has sent the records including the Valium to my suboxone doc by mail, but I think I'll see her before she gets them. I've never failed a test in 1 1/2 yrs, & don't want to screw up.

Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

Valium is Diazepam and the drug is a long acting benzodiazepine drug. You are already taking Suboxone (8/2) so should have avoided using Valium without prescription. If we consider half life of diazepam then its about 45 hours. By considering half life the drug can be detected even for up to 10 days in system. But high risk for urine test would remain for about a 1 week. Drink plenty of water and avoid using the valium in future.

Thanks
