Whats in my wee?

Postby Slypsy » 19 Jun 2008, 18:01

Does anyone for certain know what urine test is done for marijuana? I am fairly sure that they don't look for THC, but don't know which metabolites or other chemicals they might use as a marker
I have only ever been wrong once and that was this one time when I thought I was wrong, and then it turned out that I wasn't.

I can send you a bottle of mine if you really need it (totally 'clean'), I won't even charge for it. ;)

P.S. From the very quick googling I've done, it does seem that at least some of the tests do look for THC, e.g. http://www.idmu.co.uk/drugtestcan.htm
Top one. Nice one. Get sorted.

well we do them at work and im pretty sure it is the thc levels we look at also meth, speed, opiates and ectasy however most drug testing strips don't look at ketimine so stop smoking weed and become a ket head instead :wink:

a friend of mine has a list of all of the tests that he has to ask the GP to do, and none of them have THC in the name. having googled a bit i see that most of them do look for metabolites, but i havent seen which ones or the name of the test that they do

a freind of mine went to rehab to overcome a nasty crack habit, but was very sucessful and ended up becoming a mentor to people new in his unit. they had to give urine tests each monday, and if they failed they were kicked out. it tested for everything, but for some reason he said it didnt find Ketamine or Acid - maybe becuase of the way it is broken down in the body? can any biochemists shed some light?

either way, marijuana will be tested for if its a work-based test and it stays in your system for a fair while.
