How long is it normal to wait after pre-employment drug test?

How long do i have to wait to be clean from smoking to pass a drug test for my lfe insurance?

  • THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF TEST THEY USE I GUESS A BLOOD TEST AND A COTTON SWAB TEST. IM SURE THE BLOOD ONE IS MORE ACCURATE AND WILL DETECT NICOTINE IN THE BLOOD FOR LONGER BUT, HOW LONG BEFORE IT WONT SHOW UP IN MY BLOOD WORK?

  • Answer:

    About 15 years. That's how long it takes for the average lung to recover from cigarette smoking.

If they do a hair follice test on you, it will show up for years after it's been in your system.

I wasn't aware that insurance people actually check for nicotine in blood. Anyway, Nicotine doesn't stick around your body for too long. It has a half-life of about 60 minutes, meaning that six hours after a cigarette, only about 0.031 mg of the 1 mg of nicotine you inhaled remains in your body.
