I read somewhere that mercury complete elimination in humans is measured in:
-weeks for blood
-months for soft tissue
-years for bone
That's a long time.
I've also noticed that some chemicals have non-linear metabolism. Sodium thiopental is an example.
This one seems to be rapidly stored in lipids then slowly released. Interestingly this seems to cause people with different body mass indexes to metabolize the chemical at different rates.

My question is: How long can a psychoactive drug last?
