==History== ==Urinalysis==
Benzoylecgonine is the compound tested for in most substantive cocaine ].
Benzoylecgonine is used as the main pharmaceutical ingredient in the prescription drug '''Esterom''', a topical solution used for the relief of muscle pain.


==Presence in drinking water==

Benzoylecgonine is sometimes found in drinking water supplies. In 2005, scientists found surprisingly large quantities of benzoylecgonine in Italy's ] and used its concentration to estimate the number of cocaine users in the region.<ref>{{cite news|date=5 August 2005|title=Italian river 'full of cocaine'|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4746787.stm|newspaper=]|accessdate=11 May 2014}}</ref> In 2006, a similar study was performed in the Swiss ski town of ] using wastewater to estimate the daily cocaine consumption of the population.<ref>{{cite news|date=2 February 2006|title=Tant de coke ?

==Urinalysis==
Benzoylecgonine is the compound tested for in most substantive cocaine ]. It is the corresponding ] resulting of the hydrolysis of the ] of cocaine. It is formed in the ] by the metabolism of cocaine, catalysed by ]s, and subsequently excreted in the ]. 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}}
