How Long Does Delta-8 Stay in Your System?

Tried Delta-8 recently—or thinking about it—and wondering how long it stays in your system? Whether you’re prepping for a drug test, planning a tolerance break, or just curious, it’s a good question. And like most things in the cannabis world, the answer depends on a few key factors.

On average, Delta-8 THC can stay in your system anywhere from 2 to 30 days, depending on how often you use it, how much you take, your metabolism, and the type of product.

Key Takeaways

  • Delta-8 can remain in your system for up to 30 days, especially with regular use.
  • Occasional users may clear it out in just a few days.
  • It is detectable on most standard drug tests, just like Delta-9 THC.
  • Factors like body fat, metabolism, and hydration play a big role.
  • Utoya’s Delta-8 products are potent, clean, and long-lasting, so effects may linger longer than you think.

How Your Body Processes Delta-8

Delta-8 is fat-soluble, meaning it gets stored in your body’s fat cells. This means your body doesn’t just flush it out overnight—it releases gradually over time. If you only use Delta-8 once or twice, it could leave your system in a few days. But if you use it daily? Expect it to stick around for a few weeks.

Your age, body weight, and hydration level all affect how quickly your body metabolizes Delta-8. So even if you take the same product as someone else, your timelines might be different.

Will Delta-8 Show Up on a Drug Test?

Unfortunately, yes. Most drug tests can’t tell the difference between Delta-8 and Delta-9, so if you’ve consumed Delta-8 recently, there’s a good chance it’ll show up as THC. If passing a drug test is important, it’s best to avoid Delta-8 for at least 30 days—just to be safe.
