Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test is a technical analysis of a biological sample—such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to identify specific drugs or their metabolites. Uses include detecting performance-enhancing drugs in sports, employers and probation officers screening for illegal substances, and police determining blood alcohol content (BAC, typically via a breathalyzer). Various methods with differing accuracy, sensitivity, and detection periods are available. Some tests quantify the presence of illegal drugs to promote responsible use.

Does Passive Marijuana Smoke Result in a False Positive?

"Passive" smoke inhalation from being in proximity to marijuana smokers is generally not considered valid for drug tests. Laboratory cut-off levels are set high enough to exclude passive exposure.

Other urine test anomalies may signal a false negative or sample tampering, such as:

• Low creatinine levels indicating potential sample dilution, either by the subject drinking excessive water before the test or adding water to the sample.
• Creatinine levels and specific gravity testing help identify diluted samples. To mitigate this, some labs use colored toilet water to discourage adding water to samples.
• Some subjects may introduce enzymes to affect urine stability, which can alter pH levels and be detected by testing labs.

Drug Retention Duration in Your System

The detection window for drug tests varies based on several factors, including:

• Drug amount consumed
• Drug intake frequency
• Drug type
• Personal metabolic rate and general health
• Fluid intake post-drug intake
• Exercise levels post-drug intake
• Genetic factors affecting individual response and drug clearance
