What liquids will take Vicodin out of someones body?

m No liquids. When Valium is taken, it gets dissolved in the tissues all over the body. Then it is gradually metabolized by the liver. It has a half-life of about 24 hours (in some patients, up to 200 hours!), i.e. every 24 hours the amount of Valium is made twice less. The liver cannot do it faster, and Valium cannot get out, or be washed out of the system by any liquid without being metabolized (that is, destroyed in the liver).

Valium is metabolized to oxazepam Klonopin is metabolized to 7 aminoclonazepam, 7acetylclonazepam, and 3hydroxyclonazepam. Most urine drug screen tests for oxazepam at detection of 300 nanograms. So most drug screen will not detect Klonopin. But some drug screen can test for Klonopin. You never know. Hope that helps you some.
