How Long Does Xanax Remain In The System?

Hi, I believe this medication was given to me without my knowledge and I was sexually assaulted and hit In my face by a good friend. He said he was giving me xanax. He ilegaly purchased these on the Dark Web from Germany is what he told me. How could he have slipped this to me without my knowledge. This happened 3 weeks ago. Is there any chance my doctor could still find it in my system?

Hello,

Well, it would not be legally purchased and being assaulted is a criminal offence and if it is not reported he will certainly repeat it.

At 3 weeks it would have to be a hair test. With one dosing it might not show up and it would be at the very base of the hair. The approximate timing and that it was one time period can be demonstrated by hair testing.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Matt Wachsman
