Brief Answer:
Detection window varies with the type of sample used

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Hydrocodone can be detected to be present in the saliva 12 – 36 hours after last dose (even if it is single dose) or 2 – 4 days in the urine.

I hope that was the answer that you were looking for.
