Fastest Way to Get Meth Out of Your System

Methamphetamine (meth) is a synthetic stimulant that affects the central nervous system. It quickly creates a high that dwindles soon after. However, the body doesn’t eliminate traces of the drug as fast. When you need the fastest way to get meth out of your system, knowing how the drug works is helpful.

How Long Meth Stays in Your Body

Compared to some other drugs, meth doesn’t stay in your body for very long. When you use meth, its effects only last for eight to 24 hours. However, this time frame depends on how much you use, your body chemistry, and your organ function.

In general, the plasma half-life for meth is 12 to 34 hours. It takes that long for your body to reduce the amount of meth that you used by half. At this point, you’re likely to experience symptoms of withdrawal if you have a tolerance, dependence or addiction. The effects are typically unpleasant and include intense cravings.

On average, the body can thoroughly flush out meth in two to 10 days. The specific time frame for you depends on how long and how often you’ve used meth.

How Long Is Meth Detectable With Drug Tests?

Again, how long a drug test can detect meth in your body depends on the severity of your substance abuse. A urine test usually detects the drug for up to three days. If you’re a heavy user, though, it may detect it for up to seven days.

A saliva test can detect meth for one to four days after using. However, a hair follicle test can identify it for up to three months.

The Fastest Way to Get Meth Out of Your System

The process for getting meth out of your body quickly will depend on your fat percentage and metabolism. Because of these factors, it’s crucial for you to have a healthy diet.

If you need to pass a urine test, you could swallow a solution of water and baking soda. You should do this about six to eight hours beforehand. The reason is that it will make you vomit, which flushes the meth out with it. However, the baking soda will make you very thirsty and may cause cramping.

Furthermore, you can get the rest of the drug out of your body by drinking a lot of water. Then, you’ll naturally urinate it out. Using herbs is another method because of their detoxifying properties. Dandelion- and peppermint-infused teas are two examples.

The fastest way to get meth out of your system will depend on your body and needs. However, the above methods aren’t safe. To protect yourself from unexpected side effects, you should visit a detox center.

How To Get Meth Out of Your System


by  | 2019 | Controlled Substances | 

Based on a study by the Foundation for a Drug Free World, it has been estimated by the United States government in 2008 that around 13 million people above 12 had used methamphetamine and 529,000 of those, use meth regularly. The immediate effects of methamphetamine can be divided into stages. The first stage lasts from 5 minutes up to 30 minutes and only happens when meth is smoked or injected into the bloodstream. This stage is usually called the “rush”.

The second stage is the “high” which lasts from 4 to 14 hours and can be distinguished because of hyperactivity and fast thinking patterns. The next stage is “binging” which involves constant meth use and avoidance of eating. “Crash” which is the next stage is characterized by exhaustion and long periods of sleep. The last stage is “tweaking” and also the most dangerous stage. Users become unpredictable during this stage and could develop psychoses, lack of sleep and extreme paranoia. Craving for meth is also more pronounced during this stage.

Medical detoxification is among the first stages of treating methamphetamineaddiction. If an individual is a methamphetamine user, detoxification is important in preparation for a drug test. A drug test is usually administered by employers and the police to make sure that civilians and employees are not using this illegal and dangerous drug.

The duration of the detoxification depends on several factors. These factors are the method methamphetamine was taken in, the length of time an individual has been using methamphetamine and lastly an individual’s tolerance level which is largely determined by the condition of an individual’s liver and kidneys. To measure how long methamphetamine stays on your system, experts use the term “half-life”. Half-life, in this sense, just like how it is used in radioactive material is the time it takes for the substance to be metabolized by 50%.

The half-life of meth is about 12 hours. It means that it will take 12 hours for the body of an average person to metabolize half of the total meth amount that they took. Meth is detectable in your urine for about 72 hours after your last intake. Blood sample and saliva have the same duration. If you are a long-time user, the time that meth stays in your bloodstream and your body is longer. In human hair, methamphetamine stays for up to 90 days.

 

Common Methods of How To Get Meth Out of Your System

The first method is to increase fluid intake. Drinking fluids can dilute the amount of meth in your body and also increase excretion of toxins in your body. Another method is eating a lot of fiber such as vegetables and fruits and staying away from fatty foods. Herbal supplements like green tea are also effective in detoxifying the body. Herbal supplements can support the liver in detoxifying the body from toxic substances and eliminating these toxic substances.

Exercise and excessive sweating can also aid in the detoxification of your body and aerobic exercises like jogging, biking, fast walking or swimming can help you sweat and release the meth from your system. Intense physical activity also helps because you drink water a lot and replace the lost water from your body. It is important to limit your exercise 24 hours before your test so that you will not get fatigued during the drug test.

Some people claim that niacin which can be bought over the counter can also help in flushing out toxins from your body. Niacin or vitamin B3 is a supplement that can improve the nervous system and skin health and lets your metabolism work harder. Make sure that you take the right and recommended amount of niacin though because too much of it can cause side effects like rashes, nausea, itching and vomiting. Some people also use special detox products like TestClear. The company provides shampoos, cleansing drinks and detoxes just so you can pass a standard urine test.

 

Conclusion

Methamphetamine is considered an illegal and dangerous drug and it is recommended by experts to avoid its use entirely. However, if you have experimented on the drug and are a long-time user, you can try methods on how to get it out of your system using detoxification methods. These methods are not scientifically proven however and you can still fail a drug test if the test falls within the time period that meth stays in your body. The most recommended treatment is to undergo counselling, rehabilitation and medication depending on the severity of your use for more permanent effects.

Kalelyn Nicole Davis

Katelyn Nicole Davis was a 12 year old girl who tragically took her own life on December 30, 2016. In 2 days that will be 3 years ago. Her death still rocks me to the core of my being. Such a beautiful. Young girl with her whole life ahead of her. Such a sad shame. I am truely disgusted in the fact that everyone in her life let her down. Child Protection Services failed her miserable. Not to mention her mother and her step father. Both, in my opinion are the biggest pieces of shit to ever walk on the face of the earth. Her step father fir abusing her mentally, physically and sexually. And her mother for not protecting her. For chosing her "best friend" over her own daughter. 
But anyway I just wanted to take a moment to remember Kaitlyn as the beautiful soul she really was.  I pray that she has found peace. RIP Sweet Child. You will never be forgotten and you will forever be loved and forever be missed.

Substance Exposed Newborns Reporting and Notifications


Substance Exposed Newborns Reporting and Notifications

The impact of in-utero exposure to substances on a newborn and their family can be detrimental.  With the increasing opioid epidemic, a new emphasis has been placed on the impact of these substances on newborns and their families.

Federal legislation requires that states address the needs of newborns affected by both legal and illegal substances. Prior to 2017, legislation required states to address only infants affected by the use of illegal substances and alcohol. The changes in requirements were made specifically to address the opioid epidemic that the nation is facing.

Louisiana's approach to addressing the needs of substance-exposed newborns is multi-faceted but primarily focuses on two approaches:

  1. Defining and addressing prenatal neglect, including reporting mechanisms and investigative protocols by the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS).

  2. Implementing a process for notifying DCFS of those newborns not suspected of prenatal neglect but exhibiting withdrawal symptoms as a result of exposure to legally prescribed, lawfully used controlled dangerous substances. The Physician Notification is a new legislative requirement as defined in LA R.S. 1086.11.

Definitions Related to Substance Exposed Newborns

“Newborn” means a child who is not more than 30 days old, as determined within a reasonable degree of medical certainty by an examining physician.

"Prenatal Neglect" means exposure to chronic or severe use of alcohol or the unlawful use of any controlled dangerous substance, as defined by R.S. 40:961 et seq., or in a manner not lawfully prescribed, which results in symptoms of withdrawal in the newborn or the presence of a controlled substance or a metabolic thereof in his body, blood, urine or meconium that is not the result of medical treatment, or observable and harmful effects in his physical appearance or functioning.  

A "Mandatory Reporter" is any of the following individuals:  a health practitioner; mental health/social service practitioner; member of the clergy; teacher or child care provider; police or law enforcement officer; commercial film or photographic print processor; mediator; parenting coordinator; court-appointed special advocate volunteer; organizational or youth activity provider; and/or school coach.

"Physician Notification Form" is the mechanism to provide notification to DCFS of a newborn who exhibits symptoms of withdrawal, or other observable and harmful effects in his physical appearance or functioning, that a physician believes are due to the use of controlled dangerous substance, as defined by R.S. 40:961 et seq., in a lawfully prescribed manner by the mother during pregnancy.  This notification shall not constitute a report of child abuse or prenatal neglect, nor shall it require prosecution for any illegal action.

Required Elements of a Prenatal Neglect Report

  • Alcohol Affected Newborns

    • Newborn must be 30 days old or less; and

    • Newborn must have either withdrawal symptoms or positive alcohol screen through blood, urine or meconium test or have observable and harmful effects in his physical appearance or functioning.

  • Drug Affected Newborns

    • Newborn must be 30 days old or less; and

    • Newborn must have either withdrawal symptoms or positive toxicology screen through blood, urine or meconium test or have observable and harmful effects in his physical appearance or functioning; and

    • Mother must have unlawfully used a controlled dangerous substance, or in a manner not lawfully prescribed, during pregnancy.

Tools to Assist in Decision Making

  • If a physician has cause to believe that the newborn was exposed in-utero to an unlawfully used controlled dangerous substance, then the physician must order a toxicology test on the newborn without the parent's consent to determine if prenatal neglect is suspected. If the test results are positive, the physician must make a report of suspected prenatal neglect.

  • If the newborn exhibits symptoms of withdrawal or other observable and harmful effects that are due to chronic or severe use of alcohol by the mother, or due to Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, the physician must make a report of suspected prenatal neglect.

  • If prenatal neglect is suspected, but test results cannot confirm exposure to an unlawfully or lawfully used substance prior to the newborn's discharge from the hospital, the physician must make a report of suspected prenatal neglect.

  • If the newborn exhibits withdrawal symptoms that are believed to be due to the mother’s use of a controlled dangerous substance in a lawfully prescribed manner, without suspicion of prenatal neglect, the physician must submit a Physician Notification Form.

Reporting/Notification Requirements

Physicians are mandated to make a report of suspected prenatal neglect to the Child Protection Hotline by calling 1-855-4LA-KIDS (1-855-452-5437).

Physicians are required to notify the Department of a newborn exhibiting withdrawal symptoms or other observable and harmful effects in his physical appearance of a controlled dangerous substance used in a lawfully prescribed manner by the mother during pregnancy. This notification shall be made through the completion of the form, "Physician Notification of Substance Exposed Newborns – No Prenatal Neglect Suspected". The physician is required to submit a Physician Notification Form to DCFS that includes a Plan of Safe Care. The Physician Notification Form is to be faxed to Centralized Intake at (225) 342-7768 and can be completed in either of the following manners:
