Benzoylecgonine is the compound tested for in most substantive cocaine [[Drug test#Urine drug screen|drug urinalyses]]. |

Benzoylecgonine is sometimes found in drinking water supplies.

==Urinalysis== |
|||
Benzoylecgonine is the compound tested for in most substantive cocaine [[Drug_test#Urine_drug_screen|urinalyses]]. It is the corresponding [[carboxylic acid]] resulting of the hydrolysis of the [[methyl ester]] of cocaine. It is formed in the [[liver]] by the metabolism of cocaine, catalysed by [[carboxylesterase]]s, and subsequently excreted in the [[urine]]. It can be found in the urine for considerably longer than the cocaine itself which is generally cleared out within 5 days. Small amounts may be traced back to certain OTC (over the counter) medications, after having been metabolized in the liver.{{Citation needed|date=March 2008}} |
