PCP and Drug Tests
by Erowid


Tested for in Standard Drug Tests? YES
Detection Period in Urine Single Use : 3 - 7 days
  Regular Use : up to 30 days


Urine Testing
10% of PCP is excreted unchanged in the urine. The remainder is metabolized into hydroxylate or glucuronide. Standard urine screening and gc/ms test for both PCP and its metabolites. PCP is stored by the body in fatty lipid tissue for up to several weeks. Chronic users and individuals with high body fat count are at the greatest risk of long-term detection.

Hair Testing
PCP is detectable with hair tests and is included in the standard set of substances tested for by many companies. Hair tests generally take the most recent 1.5 inches of growth and use those for testing. That provides a detection period of approximately 90 days. If an individual's hair is shorter than 1.5 inches, this detection period will be shorter.

Blood Testing
PCP is detectable in the blood for approximately 1-3 days after use.

Substances or Conditions which can cause false positives
In Urine Tests: venlafaxine (Effexor); dextromethorphan; ketamine
