How long vape stays in your system depends on what you’re vaping (nicotine or THC), how often you vape, your metabolism, and which type of drug test is used. Here’s a breakdown:
🧪 If You’re Vaping THC (Weed)
Detection Windows for THC:
| Test Type | Occasional Use (1-3x/week) | Regular Use (4+ times/week) | Heavy Use (Daily) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Urine Test | 3–7 days | 1–3 weeks | 3–6+ weeks |
| Blood Test | 1–2 days | Up to 7 days | Up to 10–14 days |
| Saliva Test | 1–3 days | Up to 1 week | Up to 1 week |
| Hair Test | Up to 90 days | Up to 90 days | Up to 90+ days |
⚠️ THC is fat-soluble, meaning it stores in your fat cells and can take longer to clear for heavy users.
🚬 If You’re Vaping Nicotine
Detection Windows for Nicotine:
| Test Type | Time in System |
|---|---|
| Blood | 1–3 days |
| Urine | 3–4 days |
| Saliva | 1–4 days |
| Hair | Up to 90 days |
Cotinine, a byproduct of nicotine, is what most tests look for. It’s detectable longer than nicotine itself.
🧬 What Affects How Long Vape Stays in You
- Frequency of use (occasional vs. daily)
- Body fat percentage (higher = slower THC release)
- Metabolism
- Hydration and diet
- Liver function
- Exercise levels
✅ Tips to Speed Up Detox (Especially for THC)
- Drink plenty of water
- Exercise (burns fat where THC is stored)
- Eat fiber-rich foods (helps eliminate waste)
- Consider THC detox kits (if under time pressure — effectiveness varies)
If you let me know whether you’re concerned about nicotine or THC, and what kind of test you’re expecting, I can give more precise advice.
