How long does cotinine remain detectable in your hair, urine, blood and saliva?

1 week: Different people metabolize nicotine at different rates. However, cotinine has a half-life of approximately 18-27 hours. It takes approximately 6 half lives for a drug to be eliminated from your system. 27*6/24 = 6.75 days. The cotinine will stay in your system for 1 week.
