It will depend on the location and the level of the drug charge. For a felony there may be no limit. For a misdemeanor it would be something fairly short, say 2 or 3 years. But it can be tolled for certain reasons as well.

Also: Because the question states "criminal" drug possession you may also be facing

possible federal charges as well, for which there is no SOL.

The concept of a statute of limitations does not apply to probation violations. A statute of limitations is a time period that begins when a criminal act is committed, and ends when charges are brought, or in some cases if the accused leaves the jurisdiction where the offense took place. In the case of a probation violation, the charge is brought as soon as the probationer has absconded from supervision and a warrant is issued. Arrest warrants have no statute of limitations. They are valid until served or recalled. People are routinely arrested on warrants that are decades old.
