Answer by Max_Gio
Question 1 – How long does nicotine stay in the system?

Answer Nicotine is a short-acting drug that is eliminated from the body relatively quickly (i.e., within a day or so). However, the effects of acute nicotine withdrawal can be felt for as much as two weeks or more. In addition, the byproducts of nicotine can be detected in the blood for up to a month after you stop smoking. This is only of concern if you are in a situation where someone else might want to test you for the presence of nicotine or nicotine byproducts in your system. – Source: Blair’s Newsletter, 7/10/00.

Heroin Withdrawal: Paxil withdrawal….How Long Does It Last!!??

Question by firedragon729: Paxil withdrawal….How long does it Last!!??
iv’e been on a 40 mg. dose of paxil for the past 6 months. on my last bottle before the precription ran out it felt like it wasn’t working as well as it was at first, so when i ran out I thought it was time to quit, & the widrawal symptoms wouldnt be that bad but it’s been a week since i’ve been off it and i feel worse than I did before I started taking it, i can’t get to sleep at all despite how tired i am and my mind races all night, i usually never get headaches but now my head pounds, and i feel like i have the flu. i cant think straight, feel lightheaded all the time, zapping and whoosing sensations, bad panic attacks, fear like ive never felt before, almost thought i was dying the other night. i sometimes feel like im out of my body. i did manage to get an hour of sleep the past 2 nights and had the craziest, disturbing dreams ever. i shouldnt have gone cold turkey. how long does it last before u feel sane again? this is hell and i will be going back on it if they dont subside.
I wan’t to thank everyone who responded, your info. was very helpful and opened my eyes about the truth of the drug. another week has gone by and i am feeling significantly better, but still a few symptoms every now and then, still feel like i have a mild hangover and the flu-like symptoms are subsiding. but nothing like last week which was nothing less than the pit of hell (not an understatement). even though i felt good when i was on paxil, it was like putting on a mask and i didnt even realize it. now that im off it I can feel my old self coming back…i am aware that the depression may/will return and if it does i wont go back on any precription drug, counceling and st. johns wort may be the key, but not drugs. I know many ppl need precription drugs to keep alive, and I know that many of them are safe and have a good rep. but there are many of them out there, like paxil, that u have to be careful of or better yet, steer clear of. thank you all again for your help, i appreciated it.

How Long Will a One Time Use of the Narcotic Marajuana Be Detected F?

Question by richie b: how long will a one time use of the narcotic marajuana be detected f?

Best answer:

Answer by Mathieu
Firstly, marijuana (THC) is not a narcotic. Only opioids (pain killers like heroin, morphine, and oxycodone) are technically narcotics. But cocaine is legally a narcotic in the United States.

If you used 1 time depending on age, weight, metabolism, and how much you used it can last for several weeks. Most likely a single use should only be detected for a week at most. But it can be longer. THC is hard to predict because it lasts a VERY long time compared to anything else. And using it 2-3 times can often be detected 3-4 weeks later. And a person who uses a lot can be positive for a very long time.
