Brief Answer:
Do you have a urine drug screen coming up?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I will like to know what prompts you to ask about this.

1. For a urine test, it will be negative within 2weeks after stopping.
2. For a hair test, it will take at least 3months for this

Drinking much water helps with clearance. However, this rarely changes the outcome of a drug screen test. The best way to have a negative drug test is to stop smoking now.

Smoking isn't healthy. I will encourage you to stop smoking to take better care of your health capital.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.

Brief Answer:
Time alone is the best answer!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Time is the best way to go. Stop smoking immediately and pray that your test comes up at least 10days after stopping. The elimination process is natural and there is little that can be done to influence this. In all sincerity, drinking much water helps but remains a gamble. Best way forward: STOP smoking.

I wish you well.
