Question by Joshua: Ok so on average I drink 80+ oz of powerade & water a day. I had a drug test today. I used about 1/2 oz of?
Clean urine. It wasn’t nearly enough. So i had to add some of my own to fill it to the line. I started work at 6am and around 1:14pm I had the test. I pissed about 4-5 times before I had the test. Any chance on me testing negative?

Labs are not looking for certain “drugs” in urine samples; they are looking for drug metabolites. Based on the psychoactive ingredients found, they can determine which drug was used. Once the body takes in a substance, the end product looks much different, once it passes through. Drugs go in the body in the psychedelic form and come out as a metabolite. No matter how many times you urinate the metabolites (depending on the drug) remain in the system. If there is any chemical change in your normal or “clean” urine, you can fail. Just a small amount of urine could contain enough metabolites to fail you. Again it depends on the type drug how long these metabolites stay in your system. Marijuana can take up to 13 days (depending on how much you use it) for the metabolites to leave your system, and it has the highest count of metabolites (31) than any other drug. Other drugs vary: Cocaine (4), Opiates (3), Phencyclidine (1), & Amphetamines (5). So there is a possibility of failing the test based on these facts. There are detoxifying products out there which could aid in passing urine tests. Each type of detoxifying product works via a unique mechanism on drug tests. Some detox products can take hours or even days to work. Good luck 🙂
