That varies depending on how much you take, how often you take it and what other medications you take. Most sources say 1-14 days but is altered by the above situations.

Soma is not a barbiturate.

Soma IS a "muscle relaxer" but has properties similar to a benzo bc it is metabolized into meprobamate. Soma typically shows up on a urine drug screen.
Meprobamate is a benzo that was more commonly used in the 70s. The therapeutic window is very narrow which makes toxicity more common.

Some states in the Untied States have changed their Controlled Substance laws. SOMA is one of those drugs in which some states consider a controlled substance. The following list Soma as a controlled substance:
As of August 2009, carisoprodol is considered to be a schedule CIV by the states of Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma, Oregon and Texas (scheduled using the states new controlled substance program which requires physicians to obtain, and include, a state "DPS" number as well as a DEA number on all Scheduled drugs) and Washington State (not verified, WA still using DEA scheduling). It is a schedule CIII in West Virginia.

If any one wanted to test for Carisoprodol they would have to purchase a single test strip that tests for Carisoprodol which wouldn't happen in most cases. Hope this helps!!

No, it does not, you may get those kind of effects from Soma, but it doesn't have the same chemical makeup.

Soma's and xanax, and all your benzo's are only one molecule away for being a benzo! I find that piece of info from a doctor who had a friend that worked for the DEA! And he is fight. When i was getting my somas, from my doctor, YES, there was a test for somas. But, it tested for almost 100 types of drugs. It depends on the panel drug sceen that you wre gatting Hope this was helpful! I found out out that my doctor, was sendind the urine tests straight to the DEA, for testing! My doctor teasted FOR EVERYTHING! But, he still lost his license to prat. Med's.! His license was suspended for over prescribing Medication to people who not did have Disk Degenerstion Degerorator, like i do. He had almost 1,500 pateints in his office. Maybe you have heard of him, his name was Cecil A. Moore. And was on the south side off Oklahoma City! He was a HORRIBLE Doctor. Now that i lost my doctor, i am on METHODON! I HATE IT. Not worrking at all for my pain and muscle spasams. I am at only 30 MLG., a day. For right now. Just to keep me from going through withdraws.

It is metabolized to meprobamate which DOES have the chemical make up of a benzo.

So Soma dont have benzos or barbituates in it at all? I always thought it had one or the other in it.

No muscle relaxants aren't tested for even in a 10 panel drug screen. Most don't use a 10 panel because of the expense, but what's tested are.
Marijuana
Cocaine
Phencyclidine
Opiates
Methamphetamine
Methadone
Amphetamine
Barbiturates
Benzodiazepines
Tricyclic antidepressants

You are right about the ten panel drug screen, but soma does test positive for a benzo.

It's the same as any muscle relaxant - just make sure you list on the application they give you that you are taking it by prescription. :)
