Can anyone tell me after stopping opiates use how long does it take to not be detected in urine?

jimmy1, are you concerned with the possibility of drug screening before acquiring a certain job--and you fear that you won't get it if it is realized that you are on meds for previous job injuries?

RE: opiates
That's why a pre-placement UDS is really an IQ test. Hair testing is what is used by major employers for white collar job openings as it looks back 3 months or more.

You'll pass the UDS after 3 days of abstaining but if you get the job carefully read the employee handbook concerning the employers policy on using prescribed medications that may cause impairment as there may be a problem later.

And never talk about your Past, medications, injury, or family to any co-workers, as it will get back to the employer faster then you can sneeze.
