A member asked:

I am taking a 24 hr urine test for my kidneys and i smoked a electronic cigarette on thursday but didn't inhale can they see nicotine in the test?

Probably not: 24 hour urine collection and testing is usually for creatinine clearance and proteins. Unless they are specifically testing for nicotine traces it will not be detected.

Cotinine test: Agree with Dr. Boorgo. Cotinine level from urine must be specifically ordered and is not part of standard 24 hour urine tests.
