Question 1

i smoked a cigarette for the first time today. how long will it take for iit to get out of my system?

Accepted Answer

Varies: Carbon monoxide will be gone after 4 months when all of the red blood cells it covered are replaced by new ones.  Nicotine will be gone within a few hours.  Heavy metals with stay with you forever until you get chelation therapy to remove them--but for one cigarrette i would not bother.  Other toxins as in pesticides may take other variable times to be expelled ;  www.Medacpc.Com.

Question 2

i need to pass a blood test for my insurance. i smoke cigarettes okay, how long does it take to get nicotine out of my system?

Accepted Answer

Stop for 2 weeks: To be safe, you might want to stop smoking for a couple weeks.  They are testing for cotinine which is a metabolite of nicotine. It has a long half life up to 40 hours. This tests shows positive for both active smokers and those who have quit but are using nicotine patch, gum, etc. Another test is used to identify active smokers. It is called anabasine and found in tobacco products. Try 2 wks off.

Question 3

this is the first time i took plan b. is it safe to smoke cigarettes still? i'm 19, not on regular birth control and i don't regularly take medication

Accepted Answer

No. Don't do it.: It is not safe to smoke cigarettes, or to smoke anything else other than brisket, ribs, or chicken. Smoking cigarettes means inhaling the toxic stuff of burnt organic material and its added chemicals, whatever they might be. It is even more dangerous if a woman smokes and takes estrogen (Plan B in the U.S. does not contain estrogen, but has levonorgestrel which is a progestin).

Question 4

how long will it take nicotene from cigarettes to get out of your system?

Accepted Answer

Variable: Depends what you mean by "out of system". Nicotine can clear within 2 days but its metabolic product from the liver-- "cotinine" --is cleared more slowly. Cotinine is often tested for in urine & blood tests and it can be found many days later, especially in heavy smokers. However, people experience nicotine withdrawal within a few hours & most nicotine suffering is very severe within 20 hours.

Accepted Answer

1 week: You need to stop smoking as this is never a good choice. But for practical purposes you need to remain 1 week at minimum without smoking.

Question 10

could you get withdrawal symptoms from your first time drinking or smoking cigarettes?

Accepted Answer

No: It takes repeated use, over many weeks, and usually at least months or even years. You can get reactions from your first drinking episode (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach upset, headache) but that is a hangover, not withdrawal, and first tobacco can do similar things.
