Brief Answer:
3 days

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
If this was not used for longer period then this dosage will be detectable for 3 days after last dose was taken. It can be facilitated only a bit if plenty of fluids is taken to promote urination. But after 3 days, it should not be detectable by standard drug screening.

Wish you good health. Regards
