How to Pass a Drug Test


How long does marijuana stay in your system is a popular topic, that’s for damn sure. And you can find a TON of regurgitated facts and figures on the Internet about it that all say basically the same thing: “it depends on your weight, your body fat, your metabolism…” YADA YADA YADA.

But since it’s a pretty good bet that you’re asking because you’re a pot smoker who’s got a test coming up, maybe what you should really be asking is: “Do I need to be worried about whether or not I can pass a drug test?” Because the thing is, if you can HIDE the fact that you smoke pot, then you don’t even need to worry about how long does marijuana stay in your system.

Here’s an example:

Smoker #1 gets high several times a day – every day – and he has for years. But he knows exactly what he needs to do to get a false negative on a drug test, whether it’s a urine test or a saliva test. So, not only is he able to pass any drug test that gets thrown his way, he also never loses any sleep worrying about how long marijuana stays in your system. To him, it just doesn’t matter.

Smoker #2 just shares a bowl with one of his buddies once or twice a month. But he has NO clue how to pass a drug test, and he wouldn’t know how to get on the Internet if it sneaked up and nipped him on the butt. Since pot can show up in a test for a month or two AFTER you stop smoking, there’s a real good chance that this poor guy will fail – even though he hardly ever gets high.

So the real key to this issue isn’t knowing how long marijuana stays in your system – it’s knowing how to make it LOOK like it isn’t in your system. Once you know how to do that, then you can stop being paranoid about whether or not you can pass a drug test. I remember that feeling, and it totally sucks.

The plain fact is that you aren’t going to find any information on the Internet that will give you definite peace of mind about whether or not pot will still be in your system when you show up for your test. But hey, wouldn’t it be GREAT if there was somebody who could tell you, “okay, according to our calculations you won’t have any THC in your system after next Tuesday at 4 o’clock”? But down here on Earth, that just ain’t gonna happen.

Fortunately, how to pass a drug test isn’t that hard. At least, not once you wade through all the sales hype out there written by companies who want you to buy their expensive detox products. People DO successfully pass drug tests, every day, and they never lose any sleep worrying about how long does marijuana stay in your system.

      hey bobbobb im pretty knowleged at thc urine tests i been messing around with smoking and passing my u.a.s scarcely! i dont think it will show up in your ua if your just smelling it or even heavely around it because i smoke 2 to 3 times before it even shows up in my u.a.! but if you smoke n it does show up in your ua then you can just say you were around it in be fine! just dont worry bout being around it cause im telling you i smoke a couple times then test my self to make sure im negative n then i quit wait a while n do it again! the thc has to build up in your fat cells before you turn positive

    I had the craziest experience trying to get hired at a hotel. They actually liked me due to a reference from a coworker. The next thing they wanted was for me to take a urine test. I freaked out because although I don’t smoke weed I did one time exactly 7 days before the scheduled urine test!!! I went crazy trying to do whatever I could to pass it. I ran to the weed stuff store and bought the liquid cover up. Then I read it and realized that it was nothing more than electrolytes and creatine. After that I devoured the internet reading up on the how to pass a weed test. So the morning of, I started drinking gallons of water and I even took some diuretics. I then took about 12 advil to confuse the results, but I realized that I had to take aspirin not advil so I took 12 aspirin as well. I even went to the store to buy vitamin b to keep my urine yellow. I drove in a frantic rush to the place and took one last piss before going in. Last but not least while peeing, I let the first squirt go, pissed in the cup, then let the last squirt go as well. The next couple of days I was really nervous because of the embarrassment of failing a weed test after being referred. But somehow I passed it and got the job!!

    This is to comment on Will’s post.
    wow dude, first of all im surprised you didnt die after taking all that advil and aspirin. second of all, How could you not pass? YOU DONT SMOKE WEED!!! Dude seriously, your crazy to think that you wouldnt pass that test after all that shit that you ingested.

    This is only for piss tests
    To all the heavy, infrequent, once every now and then, or once in a while pot smokers out there. Obviously if you smoke herb everyday it will take a good minute=(2 weeks at most with my system) to get thc out of your system. I’ve checked out a bunch of sites on how to get pot out of your system and have basically figured out THE BEST way to get pot out of your system. Being someone who takes a piss test every month, i have personally figured out an easy way to get weed out of your system. But dont expect thc to just magically disappear. I have a system that works everytime. Depending on if you have a test two weeks from now or a week from now my system is as easy as this: SAUNA AND GALLON OF WATER DAILY or you can do it like every other day. No need for vitamins or in Will’s case advil/aspirin (unless you want to kill yourself). the main thing you want to do is pee it out, or sweat it out. for best results you want to do both.

    If your a dumbass and you forgot that you have a piss-test the next day, a couple days, or a few(5) days from now. then you better start drinking as much as possible and make sure you pee constantly. the whole point is to completely rid yourself of the THC in your piss. Then by the time you actually take a pee test you will pee the cleanest pee of your life.

    All clean pee results are best attained if you have a fast metabolism, are active, eat relatively good, and are consistent with my system.

    I am 145 lbs 5′8′

    P.S. Sweating is key, as well as peeing 20 sum odd times a day

    f*** the test dont smoke! it will slow you down and confuse you, but only while your on it. stop it and everything returns to normal.. i smoked since i was 14 everyday and what stopped me was the fact that thc stops the brain devoliping properly. you know its true– i bet most of you cant remember anything long term…. pre frontal cortex…. be a dad kick the evil weed out..(unless its a bit of nevilles haze in amsterdam!)

      thats funny, after i stopped smoking, i felt like i couldnt remember a lot more than wen i was actually high. I had better memory for some reason, but i laid the joint down and finally stopped due to 16 dollars an hr starting out, and now i fell like my balance is messed up, my sleeping is worsened, and I cant remember a lot of things that has happened or that has just happened not even 2 hours before. I.E. at my job i have to remember my machine numbers as im going, so if i have to stop to fix another machine, i can come back to it later. There is about 250 machines in the layout and i dont have to work on all of them, but about 25% of them i do. Alot of times ill have to remember how many times ive fixed them and how many times ive inspected them. I seem very hazey when it comes to getting back to the machine i was at before having to go fix another one…. so i dont understand about why I cant remember them. maybe im just dumb, but then again i couldnt have the job im at if i was. and a GPA 3.5…. thats wen i was smoking too!!! just saying that for all the smartasses going to say im dumb, retarded, or a freakin’ moron.
