    I got a drug test tomorrow and I guess there doing a mouth swab. I havent smoked much like 2 hits off a joint about a week ago and 1 bong hit about 3 weeks ago. Anything to worry about? Is there a way to get around it detecting the pot?

    break your jaw to the point where it needs to be wired shut in order to heal, and then they won't be able to get in there.

    If that's like all you've smoked in the past 2 months you'll probably pass.

    no no no man, I didn't mean to sound like an asshole. I'm stoned and somehow it sounded funny in my mind, like really sick, disturbing things somehow sound funny when your high, but I wasn't really saying it to you I just got off on a tangent in my mind and somehow thought that people would understand the humor but it definitely came out as an asshole remark. sorry.

    I wish I could give ya some serious advice, but I have no idea... I've never worked a job that tested me. I quit one job when I found out they were gonna test me, cause I hated it there and wanted to go back to my job at a ski place, so I just said fuck it, this is a great reason to get outta here.

    A mouth swab detects whatever you've ingested in the past 24-48 hours. don't smoke a coupla days (I'd give it three just to be safe) before hand and you will be absolutely fine.

    TO pass a drug test all you have to do is drink water till your piss is clear (literally once there is no yellow in your piss, there is no thc)

    I can only relate my own personal expierience with testing.

    I was on Pre Trial Supervision, which is like probation before you go to trial. I knew I was going to get tested so I stopped all smoking. After about 3 weeks, I shared a couple of small bowls with 2 friends. A week later I got piss tested and failed.

    I knew they would test me agin in 2 weeks, I got all kinds of clean out stuff off of the Internet (about $300 worth) and testing strips. I took all the herbs and stuff drank water and cranberry juice all day every day until the test. I didn't pass....

    This was used against me in court on the original charge even though it was not even drug related.

    That's just my expierience...Good luck to anybody who may be tested.

    This is extremly untrue, when your piss is clear it just means its full of water, doesnt mean it wont contain THC at all, and they know what water-filled piss is, they arent stupid. Go fuck yourself with false info like that.

    And to the guy getting tested, ure lucky its not a piss-test, or you would be screwed. You should be safe on the swab tho. Good luck.

    contrare, lots of water right before your drug test will help you out, i mean drink like 1 gallon or more 30 min before ur test. It will temporarely decrease the thc in your piss, if im not mistaken, which im not mistaken because I know people who have been on probation and passed drug tests, even though they smoked the day before.

    Of course it'll decrease your THC if its full of water and shit, Im not saying it wont. Im being drug tested each month right now, have been since sept., I got one tommorow.. and if they see your piss all clear, I doubt they will even take it.. most of them say eat something and come back later. They know all the tricks, they arent stupid.

    And even if they did, when it comes to court or a job, its not gonna matter wether theres alot or a little THC in your system, the point is it find out wether or not youve been hittin the pipe, not how often.

    Hehe... THAT was the test!

    Pre-employment drug screening is just that: pre-employment. If you've already started, there can't be one. Unless randoms are part of an existing written company policy, you won't be tested period unless you're involved in some kind of work-related accident.

    That is just horrible, all-too-common misinformation that will likely get someone into serious trouble, the hospital (water poisoning), or both.

    First, urine tests aren't looking for THC, or the active ingredient of any other drug. When you ingest (smoke or otherwise) any drug, your body eventually metabolizes the compound(s) and excretes them. The metabolation process creates metabolites, and those are what is being measured by a urinalysis screen.

    These metabolites can and do exist in the non-user, but not in anywhere near the concentration found in a user. It is up to the person paying for the test, as well as the limitations of the testing lab, to determine the threshold for pass/fail. The equipment used to analyze a sample is pretty damn expensive- i.e. the more sophisticated and precise a urinalysis is, the more expensive it is for whoever is testing you.

    When you hear testimonials from those claiming they've passed by drinking gallons, etc, either: (a) they're lying, (b) the amount of metabolites in their sample did not surpass the pass/fail threshold of that particular priced test, or (c) in the case of mj anyways, their metabolism rate is freakishly high.

    If a urinalysis was that easy to beat (i.e. just drink lots of water), it would be called a stupidity test instead of a drug test since only the illiterate would fail.

    Also, a good friend on probation for cultivation had a test flagged last summer because he legitimately drank way too much water beforehand. He's working as a roofer (which IMO is proof enough that he doesn't grow any more), and took his test following 8 hrs in the Louisiana summer heat drinking tons of water. Turns out the tests administered by the Drug Court also measure creatine levels - creatine has more to do with the yellow color than the "THC levels" btw, and replenishes itself quite quickly when diluted. So if your creatine levels aren't within the expected range, recent dilution is obvious...

    The water you ingest won't magically circumvent any problematic path along the way simply because there is an excessive amount of it; what you drink will still enter the blood stream and be subject to filtration by the kidneys. If it is still needed by the body then it will exit back into the blood stream at the proximal tubule and the initial descent of the Loop of Henle, leaving the filtrate behind with sodium ions that will most likely be subject to re-absorption as well. As you drink more water, atrial natriuretic hormone will be released which will inhibit reabsorption and cause more frequent trips to the bathroom, but filtration will still occur (i.e. filtrate left over upon exiting the distole tubule is still getting pushed through the system). That said, "leftovers" from the blood stream are still going to be present in urine. I don't know what the cut-off for margin of error usually is in drug tests, but I can tell you right now that drinking a gallon of water is by no means a failsafe unless there is already virtually zero trace of an unwanted substance present.
