How Long Does THC-O Stay in Your System?

Before diving into the real THC-O experience, getting to know everything about this substance is essential. For instance, how long does THC-O last in your system? If you’re concerned about plenty of legal restrictions or worry about work-related drug tests, we’ve prepared this entry just for you. 

Lastly, we’ll explain how long does THC-O high last, as it’s an integral part of the experience, isn’t it? Let’s get started!

How long does the THC O last? It’s all up to your metabolism!

As you see, we have both bad and good news for you. At the same time. Sorry!

The case of how long does THC-O last is very similar to the other THC types, such as Delta 9 or Delta 8. We can’t say for sure whether it will be 10, 20, or 30 days because all bodies work differently. Furthermore, the research hasn’t yet confirmed how long our systems take to flush THC-O out. However, based on their structure, we can assume it’s about the same amount of time as other similar substances. 

So let’s break down what can cause a longer or shorter half-life of THC-O.

Your metabolism

As we mentioned above, it’s absolutely crucial to take your metabolism into account when estimating the time needed to get rid of THC O from your body. Obviously, people blessed with a faster metabolism can take a drug test way sooner, whereas people with a relatively slow metabolism will have to wait a bit longer.

Hydration

Surprised? Many sources suggest that increased hydration may be helpful with flushing out the THC-O metabolites (quite literally, actually). It’s mainly because more hydration equals better work of your internal organs responsible for detoxication, such as the liver or kidneys. So remember to drink clear water, not sugary drinks. 

Your weight

The difference that your body weight makes when it comes to THC-O metabolization isn’t enormous, but you should consider it anyway. Why? THC metabolites are stored… in body fat. So, if you have more than less fat, it may take longer to clear your system entirely. 

The delivery method you used

Surprisingly, the delivery method makes a big difference. For example, inhalable products metabolize the fastest, while edibles (such as gummies, candies, etc.) take the longest. 

The amount of THC-O you consumed

Along with its delivery method, the amount of THC-O you take is crucial. The more you consumed, the longer it will take for you to get rid of THC-O metabolites. It just makes sense: 25 milligrams are literally ten times less than 250, not having mentioned 2500, right?

Let’s recap:

• If you’re going to take a drug test soon but consumed THC-O more than a month ago, you’re almost 100% good. 
• There are ways to speed up your metabolism, including drinking more water. 
• You must take into account factors such as your body weight and natural metabolism.
• It matters whether you inhaled the THC product or ate it in the form of, e.g., gummies. 

Remember: Depending on your drug test, THC metabolites may go unnoticed. The blood test, being the least precise, only detects metabolites for up to 39 hours; saliva tests work up to 48 hours; urine tests up to 30 days; hair sample tests - even up to 90 days after the last use. So, as you see, the accuracy of tests varies widely. 

How long does THC-O high last?

Lastly, let’s talk about the high after taking THC-O. What’s exciting is that THC-O's potency is nearly three times higher than Delta 9 products. In addition, it produces euphoric effects that can last three to five hours (according to some sources, it can be even eight), depending on the dosage. 

However, remember that the effects will also be slightly different - more spiritual, uplifting, and - in some cases - even hallucinogenic. That’s why you should never drive and do any tasks that require your complete focus and sobriety. Additionally, keep in mind that some edibles take longer to kick in but also last longer, while vaporizers take effect quickly (up to 15-20 minutes).
