                                            Question : how long does roxicodone remain in your system. I need to take a urinalysis. It is prescribed for a torn rotator cuff
                            
                                    Brief Answer:
Hi and welcome to XXXXXXX 
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the query.
Well it depends on dosage that you are taking, but after standard doses for neuromuscular pain, it clears up from our body within 4-5 days and it is not detectable in urine after it.  Rarely in some people with slower metabolism it may take bit more,6-7 days. So after 1 week it should definitely not be detectable.
Wish you good health. Feel free to ask. Regards
