how long will codeine show up in a urine drug test

   Hi,
   On a simple urine test, it will show up as Morphine. This is because Codeine is metabolized to Morphine in the liver. So the Morphine metabolites are excreted in urine. Usually when this happens, the next step is to analyze the levels of these metabolites to deduce whether it was Codeine or Morphine consumed.
   On a GC/MS test however, it will show the molecular fingerprint of any drug(s) consumed.
   Codeine would be out of your system within 3 days. However this also varies depending on the individual's metabolism and the dosage.
   Hope this helps.

   I took Cherratussin at night 1 teas. for 3 days. I took the medication Mon, Tuesday and Wednesday night only-- I took my drug test on Friday (2 days later). Because I have a prescription the company let me RETEST 6 days after taking the medication. Did I pass the second test?
