Title: How To Pass A Drug Test

  • The most common form of drug test is the urine
    test, likely due to its inexpensiveness.
  • Urine testing detects past drug use, not
    real-time.
  • Urine tests are highly sensitive to marijuana,
    which stays in the system longer. Opiates or
    cocaine, on the other hand, flush from the system
    within 2-3 days, and are rarely detected.
  • Low tolerance for marijuana, and high tolerance
    for other drugsplus the fact that urine tests
    often do not register alcohol usemake urine
    testing a flawed technology.

  • Whereas urine tests typically detect past usage,
    blood tests can be used to gauge real-time
    impairment. Therefore, blood tests are ideal for
    roadside or workplace accidents and sobriety
    checks. Though blood sampling is considered the
    most accurate method of testing, its also the
    most expensive, and rarely used.

4
  • Less common but extremely accurate, hair tests
    can be used to test most major drugs via a hair
    sample. Drugs are detectable as long as the hair
    isnt cut, growing out just as hair dye does.
    Hair tests are favored because they can detect
    drug use within a window of about a week and
    going back for several months or more.

5
  • Saliva testing is a form of drug test that has
    recently become more common. This test costs less
    than blood tests, but is more expensive than
    traditional urine tests. Saliva tests are most
    reliable for detection of methamphetamine and
    opiates, but not as helpful for identifying THC
    or cannabinoids. Saliva tests can detect recent
    usage and are easy to administer, yet require lab
    processing to ensure accuracy.

When it comes to passing a urine test, time is
your best bet as some substances (like THC) can
stay in the system for at least a month. Luckily,
as urine tests are the most common form of
testing, there are many options available for
those looking to pass.
  • Additives Chemical solutions, available from
    Clear Test, can be used to doctor a urine sample
    and control the results.
  • Detox Drinks Specially-formulated drinks which
    hold all toxins in the body for up to five hours,
    allowing the consumer a window for passing a
    urine test.
  • Synthetic Urine Many companies manufacture urine
    which can be hidden for use during a test, in
    place of real urine.

7
  • Luckily, drugs are removed from the blood stream
    in a short period of time. If youre able to
    refrain from using drugs for about 48 hours
    before the test, you should be able to pass with
    flying colors. Unlike other forms of drug
    testing, its hard to game the system during a
    blood test because they are very accurate and can
    identify herbs or chemicals used to potentially
    alter your results.

8
  • Beyond outright abstaining from using drugs,
    follicle shampoos are the best way to beat a hair
    test. Most products cannot be detected by the lab
    administering the test. Follicle shampoos can
    last up to eight hours, but recently revised
    testing standards may affect your resultsso do
    your research before making an investment.

9
  • Saliva tests only register recent drug use
    (within two to three days). To avoid unwanted
    results on your saliva drug test, look for
    effervescent tablets or mouthwash products that
    typically work for at least two hours. There are
    also chewing gum products available, such as Oral
    Clear from ClearTest, that will do the trick.
