Hi and welcome to HCM

Detailed Answer:
Considering that pcp (phencyclidine) was taken by smoking and your age and weight, then concentrrations of in blood will be present for 24 hours and in urine for 7 days so it shouldnt be detectable in standard urine drug tests. As a doctor, I need to highlight that this substance have various negative effects and consumation of it should be stopped ir reduced as much as possible. Wish you good health. Regards
