drug tests

Sent to Health Experts July 28 08:58 AM

Would being around marijuana smoke show up on a drug test? ( not smoking it but being in the company of the those who do.) And if it will, what can I do so my drug test (work related) will pass?

They say it won't. I believe that if there is anything to the secondary smoke theory that is stated about cigeretts that if you are around it a lot or in a concentrated area like a closed car it might.

Hope this helps
Thankyou,

Greetings:

Yes, second hand marijuana smoke can show up on a urine test...(it leaves traces of THC)... It will produce a positive result on the first day or so after breathing in the smoke.

Please see the following:

Since you are needing to take a drug test for work - just stay away from others who are smoking.

Please take care.

Bright Blessings.

Peace, Love & Happiness,

Reply to Firsthogman's Post: Thank you for your answer, I believe this can help me, so basically, if the last time I was around the smoke was Tuesday the 26th and my drug test is Aug 3rd and I stay away from it, I should be in the clear.

I would say you should be. Just remember what I said about the cheap test most employers give. If it were to come back positive for some reason a better test can be gotten by you and the first one disputed. I know someone with a CDL that had to do this.

Good luck
