Street names for Drugs and how long they can be detected
For dealers and consumers to get what they want and need, they are conspicuous in naming the specific drug to be supplied.
Some of the common names for popular drugs used by musicians are listed below.

All drugs stay in the body for a period of time and can be found by testing for them.
Drugs can be detected in urine between 1 to 5 days. Hair grows about half an inch each month, so an inch and a half of hair would give tests a three month drug history. Drug usage can also be detected in saliva for 10 to 24 hours. A sweat patch can retain evidence for seven days and can detect low levels two to five hours after last use.
