The Respiratory Therapy Pinning Ceremony is a time of great honor and dignity and a special occasion for our graduates and their family members. We ask that you refrain from talking, cheering, excessive movement, and using electronic devices during the ceremony.
Xanax is a relatively short-acting drug when compared to Valium. If you're an average-size person, you would expect Xanax to stay in your urine for 1-4 days after last use. To be safe, you should wait at least a week. Note that this is very dependent on how much and for how long you've been taking it.
In older or obese people, or those with liver disease, Xanaxâs half-life is longer, as long as 40 hours. It takes several half-lives to eliminate a drug completely. So for most people, there may still be a small fraction of Xanax in your blood two days or more after taking a single pill. People who take Xanax on a regular basis maintain a higher drug level in the bloodstream, and it could take several weeks to eliminate all the Xanax from the body.
