How to remove heroin from your system within 24 hours?

The concept is simple. You want the more urinary output to increase the excretion of heroin. Urinary production can be improved by increasing fluid and electrolytes input. Continue drinking water till you take the test. At least pee thrice before taking the test.

You can also choose diuretics to increase your urinary output. Caffeinated drinks like tea, cola and coffee act as diuretics. A prescription diuretic like furosemide can also be taken.

Take Vitamin B to give the urine sample a yellow color. Diluted urine has a lower temperature, so you might want to warm it by rubbing the jar between your palms.

You can also remove heroin quickly from your system by taking sodium ascorbate combined with baking soda and vitamin C to make the system acidic. This allows the metabolites of heroin to be removed quickly from the body.

Also, ensure that the sample of urine you provide for the test is not the first urination of the day. The first urination of the day contains the highest concentrations of metabolites.

You can even apply the substitution strategy. In this method you only switch your urine sample with a sample that is clean; however, it is very risky.

You can also contaminate your urine sample by adding salt to it, but it can be detected if the pH of the urine is measured.
