HOW DOES DRUG TESTING WORK?
Most drug testing is broken down into four categories: urine, hair, saliva, and blood. The labs
are not looking for actual drugs, but drug metabolites, which are the bi-product of drugs. Once
a body takes in a substance, it processes that substance, and the end product looks much
different than the beginning product.
Urine Testing
Urine testing is the most common drug testing around. This is typically broken up into two
types of tests: drug screen and drug test. Yes, these are two different things and most people
are not aware of the differences.
First, let me explain the drug screen. This is a very simple dipstick test, where the technician
simply dips a litmus strip directly into the urine sample, and will have a result within minutes.
These are the same tests you can get in your local pharmacy or online. There are different types
of these tests, but the most commonly used is a 5 panel test which tests for THC, Opiates, PCP,
Amphetamines, and Cocaine. These tests are sometimes referred to EMIT, which stands for
something long and hard to remember (Enzyme Multiplied Immunoassay Test), but most
commonly it is referred to as a dipstick test, or instant screen.
Now this brings us to the drug test. This is scientifically referred to as a gc/ms test (Gas
Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry) but is more easily referred to as a lab test. This is the
most accurate type of urine testing. Basically what they do is send your urine through a
machine, and the machine will spit out numbers that tell the levels of toxins if present. Most of
the time, these two tests are used in conjunction with each other. What many labs will do is use
the cheaper less accurate instant screen to initially screen your urine. This will give the lab a
preliminary result as to if you are a drug user or not. If the instant test is negative, you pass.
Way to go! If the test is positive, then they will do a confirmation lab test. This will give them a
more precise result, eliminating any false positives that may have occurred on the instant test.
Certain people are subject to DOT drug tests, or Department of Transportation drug tests.
These types of tests are regulated by the Department of Transportation and if the guidelines
are not followed then the results are considered invalid. On these tests, an instant screen is
always done first, and if the result is positive, the sample is sent for confirmation with a lab test.
DOT will only test for five different substances: Marijuana, Opiates, Cocaine, Amphetamines,
and PCP.
. Once the urine sample has passed the integrity tests, it is free to be tested with an instant
screen or lab test. Integrity tests are just a piece of litmus paper that they dip into the urine.
This stick will test for several constituents of urine which include pH level, specific gravity, and
creatinine. The lab will also check for several substances that could indicate the donor tried to
adulterate the sample. Adulterating the sample means to put something in the urine that would
cause it to test negative.
Hair Testing
Hair testing is another type of test that labs will do to test for drugs. Toxins are circulated
through your body via blood. When hair is formed, blood is deposited into the hair follicle. Your
old blood actually becomes your hair. When you have toxins in your blood, the toxins are also
deposited into the follicle and become trapped in your hair. The level of toxins is greatest near
the scalp. Sunlight, shampoo, and chemicals used in hair dyes will help reduce the level of
toxins in your hair. For this reason, they will clip the hair sample near the scalp, on the back
(nape) of your neck.
The hair will then be sent to a laboratory where they dissolve the hair in organic chemicals.
Once the hair is dissolved, the sample is tested just like a urine sample would be tested in a lab,
with a gc/ms machine.
Saliva Testing
Saliva testing is a very simple and fast way to test someone for drugs. This test is mostly done
for pre-employment tests and is done onsite. Basically a stick with a sponge, sometimes called a
swab, is put into your mouth. The tester is to run the swab over the tongue and against the
cheek. It is then held in the mouth until the swab is fully concentrated with saliva. This saliva is
put into a testing tube that contains a dropper on top. The tester will then drop saliva on a
testing cartridge that contains litmus paper. The results will be ready in ten minutes.
WHAT TO EXPECT ON THE DAY OF THE TEST
The number one question I get from friends getting ready to take a urine test is, "What am I
going to have to do?" Some companies will give you a couple days notice of a pending drug
test; some will just pop it on you randomly. Typically, the collection process is the same for
both situations.
When you arrive at the collection site, you will sign in and wait your turn. Depending on the lab,
your wait could be a couple minutes or it could be 45 minutes. When the technician calls you,
you will be required to have a photo id, and any paperwork your employer gave you. You will
be required to give them your social security number, and phone number. Once the paperwork
is filled out they will take you back to the collection room. You will be asked to leave your jacket
outside in plain view, and if you are carrying a bag or purse, you must lock it up. They may ask
you to empty your pockets, but this isn’t the case in all labs. Remember, they do not have the
authority to frisk you or go through your personal items. If they ask to do this, it is a violation of
your privacy. You should leave the lab and report them immediately. Before you get a sample
cup, you must wash your hands. The technician will make sure the toilet has been flushed and
the bathroom is clear. You will then be asked to select a sample cup. The technician will take
the sealed sample cup out of the plastic wrapping and show you where you must urinate up to.
Typically, they will ask for one to two ounces of urine, but if you are being tested under DOT
guidelines, they cannot ask for more than 1 ½ ounces (45 ml). You will then be told to not flush
and to not run water. The water in the toilet is blue. I don’t know how many times I have been
asked about the blue water. People seem to think there are secret chemicals in it that can
detect if you are using synthetic urine. The blue water is just that - blue water. It is basically
used so people don’t use the water to dilute their urine sample. It also keeps the toilet bowl
fresh and clean.
Now it’s time for you to give your sample. You will go into the bathroom or stall ALONE. They
cannot legally watch you unless you sign a waiver. This is of course as long as your test is not
court ordered, for the military, or a retest for one you botched earlier. It is also illegal to have
cameras or two way mirrors inside the bathroom. If you see this, leave immediately and call a
lawyer.
After you urinate into the cup, you will bring it out to the technician. The first thing they will
check for is the temperature. There will be a temperature strip directly on the cup that ranges
from 90 to 100 degrees. Checking the temperature proves that the urine sample came from
your body. The sample will immediately begin to cool, so get the sample out to the technician
fast. The urine must be within the acceptable temperature range. If it is not, they will dump the
sample out, and ask you to go give them another one. If you leave without giving another
sample, this will be considered a refusal to test and you will fail. Once the technician confirms
that the urine is within the correct temperature range, they will indicate on the paperwork that
your sample is acceptable.
If your urine test is a split sample (sometimes done if they are performing a screen and then lab
test), they will pour the contents of the cup into two smaller sample cups. If it is not a split
sample, the urine will remain in the original cup and the lid will be closed. Tamper-proof seals
will be placed over the lid(s). You will initial the seal(s) which indicates that you saw the
technician seal the sample cup(s). Your sample will now be placed in the sample bag. You will
be instructed to sign, initial, and date the paperwork. The technician will detach and give you
your copy of the paperwork that you will keep for your employer. The rest of the paperwork is
now put in the sample bag and the bag is sealed. Now you can wash your hands and gather
your personal items. The hard part is over. You’re free to go.
HOW TO PASS A DRUG TEST
Now for the section you have all been waiting for. How do you beat these pesky things? There
are many methods that people claim work, and there are many myths that don’t work. Some of
the most popular ways to pass is the substitution method ,the dilution method and the
Adulteration method.
The Dilution Method
The dilution method is a very effective way to pass a drug test. Basically, the dilution method is
drinking a lot of water to water down your urine just enough so the toxin level is undetectable,
but not so much that the urine still will pass the integrity tests. If you water down your urine
too much, the urine test will come back diluted, which will cause a retest. In most situations
they will just tell you to come back within 24 hours to take another test. This will buy you more
time to get the drugs out of your system. As long as you follow the directions bellow you should
not have to worry about watering down your urine too much and you should pass with no
problem.
The dilution method works by abstaining from toxins at least 48 hours before your test.
Through the 48 hours you want to start taking large amounts of creatine and water. You want
to drink 1 gallon of water every 4 hours. On the day of the test do not eat, and drink cranberry
juice or sports drinks. You also want to be taking vitamin b to add color to your urine. When you
urinate, your urine should be diluted enough to lower the toxin levels, but have enough to pass
the integrity tests.
Another very important thing is to sweat as much as possible. Do exercise, run and if possible
use a sauna. The more you sweat the faster you get the drugs out of your system. As soon as
you find out that you will be tested start exercising and drinking water as much as you can
A popular method dilution is using detoxifying drinks as opposed to trying the more
complicated method as discussed above. These drinks come in all kinds of different flavors and
sizes, and are very effective on light users. They are much easier to stomach because you’re not
drinking an excessive amount of fluid. The vitamin b and creatine is already in the drink so you
don’t have to take extra supplements. You do still need to abstain from toxins for 48 hours
before your test. Rapid Clear offers a line of detoxifying drinks. This is one of the more popular
drinks people use. It comes in several different flavors, and two different sizes to account for
different body masses. You just drink the detoxifying drink one hour before your test, followed
by some water. You will urinate frequently during the first hour. You will be able to give your
urine sample one hour after drinking the juice. This drink is only a temporary solution, and only
lasts for five hours.
Ultra Klean, another manufacturer of detoxifying products, offers an herbal tea called Power
Flush Tea (available at www.detoxforless.com). This is a tea that you brew and drink over a
three hour period. It also comes with vitamin b capsules to take during the consumption of the
tea, so your urine has color when testing. It is important to urinate frequently while using this
product so you can totally flush your body. Like all dilution products, this is only a temporary
solution.
As you can see, there are many different ways use the dilution method in order to pass your
drug test. As with all dilution, remember, it is only for light users which is one to four times a
week. This is ideal for the weekend user, especially if you are observed. If you do not fall into
this category, then it is best to explore other options to pass your drug test, such as
substitution, or adulteration, which I will discuss next.
How Too Pass A Saliva Test
Saliva test can be very easily argued in court, they are only 89% accurate so can never fully be
proven, make sure before you do take your test you wash mouth out with Listerine
HOW TO PASS A HAIR FOLLICLE TEST
Hair drug tests are by far the most expensive tests and are also the most unpopular tests that
are given.
THC metabolites are stored in the cortex of the hair strand. The cortex is protected by a layer of
scales called the cuticle. To strip the metabolites from the cortex, the cuticle needs to be
opened and penetrated.
Basics open the cuticle due to their PH levels above 7. Baking soda, bleach, and ammonia are all
are strong basics that help to open the cuticle.
Shampoos like Toxin Wash and Zydot contain strong stripping agents, that combined with
bleaching and redying yield a very high success rate in passing hair tests.
You then want to bleach and dye your hair. Going to a pro is best for bleaching and redying, but
it can be done at home.
The basic plan is to bleach and redye twice. Use a 40 volume peroxide bleach. Ignore the hair
pros and sign a waiver if needed. Washing out the bleach and the dye with a very strong
shampoo like Toxin Wash works best. The second bleach and redye should be done at least 10
days after the last session of herb. If you have little or no clean time, the last bleach and redye
should be done as close to the test as possible.
The day of the test make a thick baking soda paste and massage it into your hair. Then do a full
TW treatment and then a full Zydot treatment. These two shampoos compliment each other.
OTHER TREATMENTS--
Hair relaxers and perm treatments can also get the job done. These products contain propylene
glycol and ammonia, which are proven to open the cuticle and reduce metabolites. I'd wash
with TW or another good shampoo after treatment.
There is a common misconception that AloeRid Shampoo helps to pass a test. It does nothing. It
is the discontinued AloeRid Treatment that contained a high propylene glycol content, and was
effective.
There is a treatment program called the Macujo Method. It works for some people, especially
those with thin light hair, or low levels of usage. It does not work well for heavy users with little
clean time. It did not work at all for me.

Drug Testing Myths
1. Vinegar & Pickle Juice
It just dilutes your urine, making your test come up bad. Plus, drinking too much pickle juice or
vinegar will dehydrate you.
2. 7-Day "Cleansers"
I'm sure you've seen the ads for these. "Miracle Cleanser" pass a drug test in 7 days, or less.
Like I've previously mentioned, THC is stored in fat cells, so tossing some vitamins on it isn't
going to shake it out. But, at least you'll have a cleaner digestive system!
3. Aspirin
Not only is this potentially fatal, it might also cause kidney failure. Aspirin is not a drug you'd
enjoy abusing because you needed to pass a drug test, this is seriously dangerous if you take
too much. Never take more than the recommended dosage. Not only is it bad because if could
potentially kill you, taking it at the correct time for it to metabolize and make your urine look
clean is a very slim chance.
4. Powdered Bleach
Another rumor I've heard is using powdered bleach, either under your fingers, and then peeing
on your fingernails (gross!) or carrying a little bit of powdered bleach with you, and then adding
it to your sample. You will definitely fail EVERY time with this method, because it spikes the pH
way out of the normal human range, making it very apparent that you added something to your
sample. Don't even bother with this one.
5. Poppy Seeds
This is the most old school rumor I've heard. Eating poppy seeds the morning before your test,
because they contain trace amounts of codeine and morphine, then telling the lab you had
poppy seeds for breakfast. Thus, getting you out of the test. But, that's exactly it, trace
amounts. What does show up on drug tests is analyzed by the company running the test, and it
will be thrown out. Everyone's aware of the opiates in poppy seeds, and they will not cause you
to fail a drug test.
