Hello
welcome to Healthcare Magic.
It can be detected by blood or urine test.
Urine test is more preferable and gives accurate results.
If single use, it clears of from blood within 1 day and in urine can be detected up to a week.
If chronic person, in urine up to 3 months can be detected and from blood up to 7 days.
So if after 7 days, then don't worry. Blood test will be negative.
But in urine , it is long time detected.
Take care...
