Understanding Drug Testing

A drug test is a technical assessment, analyzing specimen types—like urine, hair, blood, and saliva—to identify the presence of drugs or their metabolites. Key uses include detecting performance-enhancing substances in sports, legal screenings, and BAC (blood alcohol content) tests, mainly through breath analyzers. A drug test might also consist of quantitative chemical analysis for responsible drug use.

Does Secondhand Marijuana Smoke Lead to False Positives?

Exposure to secondhand marijuana smoke is unlikely to yield a positive test, as laboratory cut-off levels exceed typical passive inhalation exposure.

Other urine screen irregularities could signal false negatives or deliberate sample tampering. For example:

• Low creatinine can suggest sample tampering, either via excessive fluid intake pre-test or sample dilution.
• Combining creatinine with specific gravity helps verify sample dilution; toilet water is often dyed blue to prevent dilution.
• Attempts to alter sample stability by adding enzymes typically affect pH, which is also tested.

Drug Retention Timeframes in the System

The detection window for each drug varies, influenced by factors such as:

• Dosage of the drug taken
• Frequency of drug use
• Type of drug
• User's metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake post-consumption
• Exercise post-consumption
• Individual genetic response to the drug
