I recently failed a oral drug test (cannabis) the other day at work and was required to go to a clinic and give a urine sample.
I knew straight away the urine sample would fail a test too and would be sent to the lab for analysis,
What I want to know is, what is considered a high level of whatever they're looking for?
I smoke everyday,
Just want to know what to kind of expect.

Cheers

Well, in urinalysis, they measure THC-COOH rather than THC. THC-COOH is a cannabis metabolite, and unfortunately, it is fat soluble. This means it stays in your system for a while.

"For infrequent cannabis users, THC-COOH remains detectable in urine for several hours after one-time use; however, it’s commonly detectable on a standard urine screen for days or even weeks after past use in regular smokers."

The only thing I would recommend is drink plenty of water to dilute it. But it sounds like you've already given the sample.


If you smoke everyday, the signs aren't good. Is this a job that requires sobriety like a surgeon, or is this an Orwellian nightmare of a job?
