Cotinine Testing12/26/2011 |
I see so much conflicting information on how long cotinine lasts in the system. As a medical professional, could you tell me: would cotinine be detected in testing (blood, urine, or hair) of someone who regularly chewed tobacco but had quit completely, no patches either, for 4-5 months? How about 7-8 months? (Also young and in good health.) Thank you.
