    i think it depends on how much of the drug has been consumed

    It depends on how much was consumed, but typically:

    Marijuana is an all-time drug.

    It never really leaves.

    Though the symptoms last only so long.

    The effects, as in his body himself,

    is about a good month or two.

    For cocaine, not too long.

    It can range from 3-4 to 6-9 days.

    Though to be honest with you,

    I couldn't give you a definite answer for sure.

    It varies.

    This is from my knowledge and understanding.

    You can home test him,

    but most kids do this-

    If you tell him you're home testing him,

    he can easily just drink a lot of water.

    A lot of water clears the system of the drug if a lot is consumed. The second he takes that test and it says he's fine; than it is in fact not lieing.

    This is if your son knows to drink water to clear his system of this.

    Otherwise, if you're doing this at random and with no warning, you will get better results. Just watch him if he drinks too much of water and such.

    I would go to your or his doctor about this and speak with them if this becomes a problem of testing him or any other matter.

    Let's just hope he's drug free.

    We need our kids to learn that they don't have to use them, and that there are other ways to make them feel better.

    Our kids need to hear that there's other ways to handle things.

    God Bless and Good Luck. :)

    Cocaine, blood and Urine - One week average, you can flush your system with water to cut this down to 3-5 days depending on how much you did.(if you are goin for a drug tst be sure to take a creatine supplement while flushing incase the doc does a creatnine test, a test to see if you have flushed your system)

    Marjiuana - up to two weeks depending on the strenght, you can apply the same process as above it works quite effectively.

    As for your hair and the idiot that says it stays in your hair forever, WRONG! up to two months depending on your diet ETC.

    It stays in your hair as long as you have the hair on your had that you had growing in the folicles when you did the drugs. MJ will stay in for 30-45 days. Cocaine will stay in about 5-7 days.

    if i were you i would probably go into a doctor to see if he tests positive for drugs. Because if you do it at home you might not be as consistent as the doctor.

    30+ days for marijuana and 1-2 days for cocaine

    It stays in your hair forever unless you get it all cut off.
