from experience it is based on a variety of things such as your fat levels, how much you eat and drink, how much of nicotine you've had and so on. little gets stored in your fat cells and if you do it a lot it takes longer to clear it out but if you drink lots of water it will get out of your blood stream quicker. if you're worried about getting drug tested or something, you should consider at least 2-3days with drinking water but once again it depends on how much you've had. a lot, like say a pack or two of blacks, could take up to a week if you use them regularly.

Nicotine stays in the blood for several hours, up to 48 hours to be precise. After this it cannot be detected in the blood or urine. However, the metabolite of nicotine which is known as Cotinine leaves its traces in blood as well as in urine for up to 7 days. About 85 to 90 per cent of the nicotine which is present in your blood is metabolised by the liver and is thrown out of your system by the kidney. But due to the higher concentration, many a times, it still persists in the blood stream. Nicotine is a very highly addictive chemical that is the main component of cigarettes. Your body, especially your heart and lungs, will usually begin to heal at 12 hours after you’ve had your last cigarette/ stopped smoking.
