How long does marijuana, weed, pot (THC) stay in your system?
Got a drug test coming up? Will THC be present in the body? We review the basic pharmacology of how marijuana stays in the system, and when you should be worried about potential marijuana addiction, or not.
What is THC?
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is a chemical experts think causes the psychoactive effects of cannabis. THC is found in products that contain cannabis such as:
- Dronabinol (synthetic THC)
- hash (resin from the hemp plant cannabis sativa)
- hashish oil
- marijuana buds
- marijuana flowers
- marijuana leaves
THC works by binding to cannabinoid receptors in the brain and causes physiological, psycho-motor and cognitive effects. In other words, THC is the chemical that gets you high. But there are other reasons why do people use marijuana?
When does THC peak in the bloodstream?
Peak levels of THC depend on how it enters the body. Although marijuana is usually smoked, marijuana can also be eaten. Marijuana is very infrequently injected intravenously. When cannabis is ingested by mouth, THC levels peak after 1 to 6 hours. When inhaled, cannabinoids such as THC are rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream with a peak concentration in 2 to 10 minutes. On average, the effects of marijuana last 3 – 4 hours.
What is the half life of THC?
The half life of a drug is the amount of time it takes for measured amounts in the bloodstream or urine to decrease by half. The half life for THC is long, because THC is stored in the body’s fat cells (THC is highly lipid and not easily dissolved in water). Therefore, the blood plasma and urinary half-life of THC are best estimated at 3 – 4 days after ingestion. But depending on the quantity of THC ingested and frequency of use, half life may even extend to 10-12 days after ingestion.
THC levels and habitual use
People who smoke once per week will increase the level of THC in their bodies over time because THC has never been fully eliminated. For these people, the baseline THC levels rise based on metabolism and fat content in the body. Furthermore, people who smoke or eat marijuana 3-5 times a week, have both higher baseline levels of THC in their systems and longer half lives of THC. In other words, regular users of marijuana are continually drug effected. So regular users of marijuana must realize that THC is generally more detectable in their systems than in the bodies of periodic/episodic users of marijuana.
Drug testing for THC and marijuana
Marijuana can be detected in urine, blood and saliva using methods such as:
- enzyme immunoassay
- gas chromatography
- high pressure liquid chromatography
- radio immunoassay
- thin layer chromatography
THC concentrations in the blood of occasional marijuana users quickly fall below limits of drug testing within 8 to 12 hours of use. However, most drug tests for marijuana compounds are made through urinalysis. And urinalysis for THC is highly precise, and measured in nanograms (n-9), or one billionth of a gram. So in this way, THC can be detected in urine several weeks or months after initial administration with precision. Positive urine based marijuana test results generally indicate use within 1-3 days; however, the detection window could be significantly longer following heavy, chronic, use. So in general, the amount of time marijuana/THC can be detected depends on quantity, potency, duration and frequency of ingestion, and the method used to detect THC or its metabolites.
Am I addicted to marijuana/THC?
Tolerance to the marijuana develops after time and regular use (3-5 times per week). You will know if you are addicted to marijuana if you experience withdrawal symptoms when use is terminated abruptly (physiological addiction) and if you begin to crave marijuana (psychological addiction). There is help for people who are addicted to marijuana, but it is only useful when you are ready to stop. Treatment generally includes some form of psychotherapy combined with support groups. However, there are also alternatives to inpatient drug treatment centers. Please leave your questions and comments here. We’ll be happy to help.

You cant get addicted to it, i just quit myself it was no problem and been a smoker for a while now.

what happens and how long will marijuana come out my system???
and will it help if i ate healthy foods and worked out almost every day doin push ups situps, jogging for a few miles would it be out of my system within 30 days????????
9:25 pm
May 19th, 2012
and i’ve been clean for 6 months now and i only took 2 hits out of a joint would still be in my system if i did my workouts, drink plenty of water with my detox and eat right????
11:33 am
May 21st, 2012
Hi Chris. Thanks for your question. It takes 3-4 days for THC to clear the system and go undetected by urine tests. THC is stored in fat cells, so this is why it takes such a long time to metabolize in the body.
8:48 pm
June 6th, 2012
I am a heavy set person and if thc is stored in fat cells and i was to lose about 5lbs be fore a UA could i get a positive result from the weight lose? If we went and droped a sample off a day or two after the weight loss
8:33 am
June 7th, 2012
Hi Dave. Thanks for your question. No, weight loss will not really affect the way that you metabolize THC. THC will still be stored in your system (and in fat) if you were a chronic smoker before a urinalysis, despite weight loss.
9:39 pm
June 7th, 2012
hey i have been off weed for over two months now, and had roughly 15 drags from joints in the last few days i have a blood test on tuesday and was wondering will it be out of my blood by then?
5:02 am
June 11th, 2012
Hi John. That’s a tough call. Your past marijuana use will probably go undetected unless you have to provide a hair sample. But if THC has built in your system after repeated hits over a few days, it might be detectable in a urinalysis on Tuesday. You’ll have to take the test and see….or you can try an at home test and know what to expect.
1:53 pm
June 18th, 2012
I took one hit last night, just one. Will that show on drug test?
4:43 pm
June 21st, 2012
Hi Tisha. Whether or not one hit of marijuana will show up on a drug test depends on how quickly your body metabolizes THC, as well as how soon after your use the test is. If it’s a next-day drug screen, or even 2-3 days afterwards…the cannabis may be detected in a urinalysis.
2:04 am
June 22nd, 2012
I took about eight hits last night, it was my first time smoking in six months, and only my fourth time ever. I have a drug test coming up so i became worried. Today i ran four miles and worked out for an additional hour and a half. I also drank 3 liters of water and a half liter of cranberry juice. I am very healthy and have a good metabolism. My drug test is urine and it could be as early as monday june 25th or as late as friday. Will i be ok for these test, or am i in trouble? Thanks
2:46 am
June 23rd, 2012
Hi John. It’s really difficult to estimate…you’ll just have to wait and see. A week or more window after smoking marijuana would be better in terms of testing NEGATIVE, but you never can tell. Each person metabolizes THC differently. Good luck.
2:20 pm
June 26th, 2012
Hey I use to be a heavy smoker and I quit about 2 months ago, however i did smoke once on memorial weekend (may 27,28), I have a drug test July 12, so it will be exactly 45 days between smoking will I pass the urine test? Thanks.
7:16 pm
June 26th, 2012
Hi Joe. Hmm. Sometimes THC can be stored into fat cells for weeks after you stop smoking pot. In fact, cannabinoid metabolites have been detected in the urine of frequent cannabis users for prolonged periods during abstinence. You can always buy a home test to monitor your results BEFORE the official test. Good luck!
11:09 pm
June 29th, 2012
Hi I smoked 5-27 and I do not smoke at all I took a few hits and I took a drug test yesterday do you think I passed
8:54 pm
June 30th, 2012
Hi Trina. No, it is unlikely that you tested dirty in a urinalysis if you smoked so long ago on a single occasion.
5:46 am
July 1st, 2012
Thank you so much I was so stressed about it
2:28 am
July 10th, 2012
@Joe. Yes you can pass the test. Anyone who tells you that you will test positive on a urinalysis 45 days after partaking IS high. Rest easy.
12:16 am
July 13th, 2012
@ Gavin Check out the Journal of Toxicology 2008 article titled, “Urinary Elimination of 11-Nor-9-carboxy- 9-tetrahydrocannnabinol in Cannabis Users During Continuously Monitored Abstinence”
Study conclusion: “The greater the creatinine corrected initial THCCOOH concentration, the greater the interval until the first negative and last positive specimens, the greater the window of drug detection and the higher the detection rate of positive specimens. Cannabis users who present with an initial normalized THCCOOH concentration >150 ng/mg can be expected to have detection rates between 60 and 100% for 28 days after the first negative urine test.”

Is there any natural products (cranberry juice etc) that will help the detox process?
2:24 am
July 19th, 2012
Hi Rebecca. Currently, there are no clinical assessments which measure THC withdrawal and the process of detoxing from marijuana. Both animal and human studies indicate that a withdrawal syndrome starts within 24 hours of cessation and may last for up to a week. For more information on detox protocol, check out: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK64116/#A85694

July 26th, 2012
I smoked last week an I’m a rare smoker could pass a pee test tomorrow?
9:08 am
July 26th, 2012
Hi Joe. Thanks for your question. It’s tough call…drug metabolism is very individual and depends on a number of factors including your age, weight, overall health, etc. So, while unlikely that a once-off occasional toke be detected in a urine screen, it is possible.
12:46 am
July 27th, 2012
Smoked Marijuana for over 10 years heavy. 4 to 5 times a day… Quit for about a week now and have took 2 home drug test and have not passed. Really want to quit and clean my whole system. I have a court test that I have just found out about.. Trying a 7 day cleansing kit from GNC. 3 days in and see no results. Need a fast clean that will really work..
5:48 am
July 27th, 2012
hi, this is a great site. reason im here is because ive been smoking high grade heavily, everyday for over 12 years. i start probation today and my PO said she will give me 30days to clear my system. you think that will be enough to clear my system? ive read that heavy smokers have failed test even 90 days after stopping and it has me nervous! you think i’ll be ok? and is there anything i can do to help speed up the process of clearing my system?? thanks.
12:33 am
July 28th, 2012
Hi Eric. Hmmm. You are right to be nervous to be given this ultimatum in testing clean. Chronic smokers can test positive for 30 days after use, even when they have NOT SMOKED during that time. So, there seems to actually be a legal issue here…Your PO cannot discredit the science.
You can refute the test or ask for a hair sample analysis should your urine test dirty after the 30 day period. But I’d suggest that you trust your intention to stay clean and work on a program of recovery. Probation is about changing your life, which you seem committed to. Stay focused on that, and the details will work themselves out.
2:42 am
July 30th, 2012
I recently took a urine drug screen, and prior to that I was 184 days clean. Before I quit, I smoked moderately for 7 years. But during my 6 months of abstinence, I’ve been ingesting a lot of water. First 3 months, did a lot of walking. A month before the test I worked out vigorously…for 6 days out of the week. I took a 3 day break before my test though. With all that being said, will I pass? I’m 5’5 260ish. Pretty much heavy set, but active. I know the metabolites probably still linger, just curious if they’re below the 50ng/ml cut-off….
2:19 am
July 31st, 2012
Hi Gabster. I’ve read accounts of clinical observations of people testing positive for THC 30 days after use…but I’m not sure of the statistical possibility that you test positive 6 months after use. I’d say that this window of time is probably enough for past use to have moved through the system. But you can always order a home kit and find out!

Hi I weigh 180lbs / 80kg and am 5 ft 11. I have a little bit of fat around usually places tommy / man boobs. I have started going to the gym to get more in shape and loose weight…
I am off to amsterdam on the 9-12th of august for 3 days. where I will be smoking heavily.
start a new job on the 15th septemeber and want to know if i could test positive to test for weed.
last time i smoked weed was in march this year and before then in xmas. i did smoke some herbal fake weed about 3 weeks ago..
what do you guys think?
6:25 pm
August 1st, 2012
Hi Frank. Do you know what kind of test you’ll be given? Urinalysis vs. hair sample analysis?
8:36 pm
August 1st, 2012
Hey, this is a great site! I have been smoking high grade every night after work for about a year now. I need to get a new job and I have been clean since the 5th, with drinking lots of water, and extreme excerise but I took a home drug test today and I still failed. I just seemed to get a little discouraged….is is possible for me to have to wait 3 months for me to get clean? Any advice would be great!
6:27 pm
August 2nd, 2012
Hi Emily. Each person metabolizes and clears THC from their bodies (urine) in their own time. There have been studies that document dirty testing 30 days AFTER USE…so I’d suggest that you wait even longer (another week, or two) and try again.
10:11 pm
August 2nd, 2012
Hi I believe it will be a urine analysis
11:13 pm
August 2nd, 2012
Hi, great site btw! Iv been smoking high grade weed for a year and half, im 5’10 200lbs. I start a new job on the 21st and will get a urine test with 50ng/ml cut off shortly after starting. I will have been clean 5 weeks by then. What do u think my chances of passing are? Thanks in advance!!
4:44 pm
August 3rd, 2012
Hi Frank. So a planned binge for August, after months of abstinence and a pee test in September. Well, I’m not quite sure how to advise you. I do think it’s possible that a binge show up in a pee test weeks after use…but you can test yourself at home before the official test to be sure.
4:46 pm
August 3rd, 2012
Hi Rigpig. It’s nearly impossible to estimate the chances of urine showing on an employment test, especially after long term, high potency use. While possible, you may just metabolize it in time. Again, take a home drug test before the employment drug test to get a better feel for your chances that way.
5:25 pm
August 3rd, 2012
Is it common to stay in your system longer than 30 days? And do masking drinks work? Thanks again.
6:19 pm
August 3rd, 2012
Hi Rigpig. We don’t advise on tricking the system, but from the study I was speaking about, here was the conclusion:
“Cannabis users who present with an initial normalized THCCOOH concentration >150 ng/mg can be expected to have detection rates between 60 and 100% for 28 days after the first negative urine test. ”

Hi I’m overweight 4’11. I would say between 185 to 190lbs. Well I smoked almost 3 weeks ago mabye 4 not sure n yea i got high a little but i didnt smoke enough to get super high. I’m aware weed stays in overweight ppls system longer. I’m goin to take my drug test on Monday, will it still be in my system. And no I’m not a regular smoker. And what measures could I take to get it all out my system. Ppl keep tellin me I shouldnt worry tho is that true?
12:30 pm
August 4th, 2012
Hi Sherrell. If you only smoked it the once, THC levels usually fall out of detection within the first 72 hours after smoking. Are you a habitual, chronic smoker or did you just smoke weed this once?

I’ll be needing to go in for a Medical Soon.
How Long would I Continue to Test Positive?
10:49 pm
August 5th, 2012
Hi Naveed. If I understand your question correctly – you’re asking how much longer until you go in for a drug screen for past marijuana use? It’s difficult to predict, but can be made easier by simply getting a home test kit. This way, you can gauge your detection over the course of time and test yourself weekly.
5:47 pm
August 6th, 2012
Hi, thought id update my situation just for info for both moderator and anyone followin posts. I have just tested myself with a home test kit today being 20 days clean and i got a very faint line which then disappeared after 10 minutes, im not sure whether to read this as negative or not as it disappeared, can you shed some light? I have been testing myself weekly and this is first time any sort of line appeared. Whats your thoughts? I have another 15 days until test and have been takin milk thistle daily.
1:33 am
August 8th, 2012
I’ve been reading on other boards, and have seen that some people have written, “If you see any line (even if it’s faint), the test is negative for THC. So you’re clean.” Let us know how it goes with next week’s test.
3:12 pm
August 9th, 2012
soo i smoke about once a week maybe if that smoked with my friend over a week ago and i have a drug test tomm. im 20 years old very think and weigh 137 do you think i will be ok ?? i have been drinking lots of water and cranberry juice and exercising a lot.
1:04 pm
August 10th, 2012
Hello Yvette. It’s difficult to say. Occasional marijuana use may or may not be detected in a drug screen a week after you last smoked. When do you learn about the test results?
3:54 am
August 11th, 2012
I’m on probation , heavier dude 320ish I smoked around 1.2 grams of weed and I have a drug test in 30 days probably lab tested will I show up over the 50n/g ?
3:38 pm
August 12th, 2012
Hi DeFy. It’s really difficult to try to predict whether or not marijuana will be out of your system within a certain amount of time. You can always buy a few home testing kits for THC detection and test once a week to gauge the possibility of THC detection as the drug screen date draws near.
10:02 pm
August 13th, 2012
I smoked 30 days ago and have a negitive home test result. Should I be worried if my official test is being done via gas chromatography? Could I be have a negitive qual but positive quant?
11:42 pm
August 13th, 2012
Hi Sweez. The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of immunoassays for the detection of THC and its metabolites are unique for a specific assay and may change over time. However, gas chromatography is one of the more accurate ways of testing urine samples. In fact, GC-MS detection times were found to be approximately twice as long as average detection times using an immunoassay with a cutoff of 50 ng/mL. But ultimately, detection time will depend on the cutoff levels. Do you know what the cutoff level is for your test?
2:48 am
August 14th, 2012
i find out within the next few days but i had took a home drug test and it came out negative soooooo i should be okay ??
11:52 am
August 14th, 2012
HI yvette. Unfortunately, you are still not totally in the clear. Home drug kits can be less accurate and have a higher threshold level for drug detection. So, you’ll just have to wait for the official results in order to know if you’ve passed the drug test, or not.
6:51 pm
August 14th, 2012
Hi just an update on my situation. Well i tested myself again today being 28 days clean and i was feeling pretty confident…it was shortlived because im still positive. I start my new job in 7 days time and im really starting to worry now, dont know when il get tested but the probability will be in the first week. Any other idea from anyone? Im absolutley gutted.
11:53 am
August 15th, 2012
Hi Rigpig. The only suggestion that I have is to go to a state where medical marijuana is legal, and seek a prescription for marijuana for medical reasons. This way, you can present the Rx to the medical review officer in charge of testing to explain the THC levels in your system.
4:32 pm
August 15th, 2012
I was a heavy user but I quit for a month. I hit a blunt 3 or 4 times. I might have a urine test in 7 to 8 days. Will I pass the test. I’m a skinny guy if that helps
5:56 pm
August 15th, 2012
Hi Phil. Thanks for your question. It’s really unclear whether or not your previous chronic use will be detected, or not, in the drug test. The recent blunt smoking is like a mini “top-up” for THC levels in the system, but the THC from the past is stored in fat cells. You can try to test yourself using a reliable home drug testing kit, and track the changes in your system as the drug screen approaches. But it’s difficult to predict whether or not you will metabolize the THC in time for the test, or not.
10:58 pm
August 15th, 2012
I had jus smoked once and i did pass the drug test n got the job just to quit after a day lol
2:10 pm
August 16th, 2012
Hi there, i was a light user of marijuana for the past 5 months maybe smoked 2-3 joints a week, I have a test coming up in a couple days, i was shocked when they asked for a drug test but, I havent smoked for 30 days and also Ive been working out drinking lots of fluids (water,cranberry juice, green tea) and ive also fasted a few days. Im about 5’9 210, mostly muscle but fat in the mid section (stomach) I need this job badly as im currently unemployed, like i said i wasnt expecting a drug test, because i never had to do one before. Do you think i can make the cut? please advise! i have only a few hours left thanks!
11:58 pm
August 16th, 2012
Hi Neo. It’s a close call. You may pass, but the THC may also be detected as regular smoking builds up levels in the fat cells. Please let us know how it goes.
2:12 am
August 17th, 2012
I took two hits off a joint this past Saturday. I hardly ever do weed, like the last time I did it was July 4th and then before that it was so long ago I don’t remember. I want to know when I will be ready for a drug test. I work out about 4 times a week for an hour each time. I am 5’1 and 127 pounds. I will probably have a drug test in the next couple of weeks. I am really nervous. I will never do pot again after this because it is not worth all the unrest I have had.
Thank you for your help!
12:00 pm
August 18th, 2012
Hi Kat. You’re probably OK to take a drug screen for THC now, because one time use of MJ passes through the body in LESS THAN A DAY for people who aren’t regular smokers.
6:46 am
August 19th, 2012
Hi, I ate a small piece of a brownie yesterday it was only my second time ever (last time over 6 months ago). I have a urine test on the 30th of August. Do you think I will be ok?
12:00 pm
August 19th, 2012
Hi RJ. Yes, you should be OK for one time ingestion of marijuana 10 days before a drug screen. In other words, THC is usually detectable for 3-4 days after one time use….and 10 days after you eat marijuana is a long enough time for THC to clear the system.
10:06 pm
August 19th, 2012
Hi, home tested myself again and i got a very faint line which DIDNT disappear this time. I think i may be right on the cut-off. As regards to your suggestion i live in Scotland where medical mj is unavailable. I guess im just gonna have to take the chance and if i fail its back to chasing haggis rounds the fields! I will post again when i have the result of the real test.
Thanks
11:20 pm
August 19th, 2012
Hey Just want to know if I will be ok, I smoked well hit a friends joint only two times which was August 4th. I have a drug test Monday August 20th. I am not a heavy nor regular smoker. Last time before the 4th I smoked July 2nd and that was not a full joint . Would I be ok? Need help, thanks.
3:36 pm
August 20th, 2012
Hello Charmaine. It’s unlikely that such a low, irregular dose of marijuana be detected more than two weeks after use. So, yes. You should be OK and the THC will probably not be in your system in detectable amounts by the time you take the test on the 20th.
9:26 pm
August 20th, 2012
I PASSED thanks for the help (:
2:54 am
August 21st, 2012
Hi, i smoke for along time everyday almost and i quit for about a month then smoke one day but in that day took a hit of honey oil from colorado as well as a 16.5 gram super blunt but i haven’t smoked anything since july 15th. My drug test is one aug. 27th for the NCAA.
Thanks.
2:54 am
August 21st, 2012
My question is if i will be clean on time.
Thank you again.
11:46 am
August 21st, 2012
Hi CJ. So, to clarify, it sounds like you were a chronic smoker, then quit for a month, had a one time binge, and then have another 6 weeks or so before a major drug screen. Well, it may be tight but it’s possible that THC passes through your system during the 2 1/12 months you were not an active smoker. One way to ease your mind would be to get an at home drug testing kit and check for yourself. Many of these kits have a “high” drug screening threshold, meaning that if you show up on the kit, you will most likely show up on a more sensitive, lower threshold drug screen.
6:50 am
August 25th, 2012
Hi, I took about 4-5 puff of a joint on the 14th august and have a urine test on the 28th. I barelery smoke week. last time was july 22th. im about 175 lbs, 5p8. I know all about the metabolism thing but just wondering if the chances are on my side to past the test. its pretty stressfull. thank in advance
12:18 am
August 27th, 2012
Hey thanks, and I passed.
1:43 am
August 28th, 2012
I smoked 1 hit and inhaled 3 hits from someone else’s 2nd hand through a paper towl tube twice and got buzzed both times. This was over the course of 3 weeks I took the straight hit the first time I smoked and a week later 3 2nd hand hits and then a week and half later 3 more 2nd hand hits. I was clean prior to all of this for 2 years and It’s been 25 days since last inhale I’ve passed 3 first check home tests all first purges of day. would I pass a lab test? Ran 6 days in row when I quit smoking again 2 miles each day did random push up sit Up drills the next week and have been doing insanity workout the last 6 days. 5’6″ 145lbs average metabolism and high fiber diet.
7:29 pm
August 29th, 2012
Hi scared. Well, you’re testing clean on a home test and the amount you inhaled seems to be spread out enough not to have built up THC levels too much in your system. Although no one can predict the outcome of a drug screen, it seems likely to me that you can pass.
3:18 pm
September 4th, 2012
Hi, I’ve been really nervous about testing negative for my probation test. My probation was supposed to be terminated, but turns out I have another month… But not know that, I hit a joint probably 4 times each day for 3 days. I havent smoked in over a year and a half before that. I have to get tested Friday, 9/7. What’s the likelyhood that ill pass? Oh and I smoked from august 10th to the 13th.
7:35 pm
September 4th, 2012
Hi marie. Again, everyone metabolizes THC differently. A short, sporadic binge over the course of a few days may build up THC levels in the body and store THC in the fat cells enough to be detected a couple of weeks later…but to be sure, you can always buy an at-home drug testing kit for marijuana and test yourself before the official test.
12:05 am
September 5th, 2012
Hello, I haven’t smoked since July 4th and recently found out I may have a drug test this friday or sometime next week, a urinalysis is the type of test. I’m 5’9, 140 lbs and probably 10-12% bodyfat, I smoked a few hits on August 31, prior to this as I stated earlier I had not smoked since the fourth and I assume I was clean by the time I smoked last weekend. Do you think I should be in the clear by Friday or next week?

Hi Gremlin. Yes, given the REALLY occasional use of marijuana, and a week’s time between your MJ use and the upcoming drug screen you will most likely test negative for THC. However, to be sure, you can buy an at home drug testing kit and check THC levels. Waiting until next week, of course, is perhaps the best option if you want to increase the time between use and testing.

Hi, still not had medical yet but i keep passing home tests with first void of the day with flying colours! Since i have been almost 8 weeks clean im pretty sure im well in the clear. My advise to anyone who smokes chronicly high grade weed, 6-7 weeks clean is enough to pass a test. The 30 day window is outdated in my opinion especially with the quality of weed in todays world. Thanks for all your advice and good luck to everyone who needs to pass a test.

I have smoked like a tenth or eighth (between 1.7G – 3.5G a day of [good quality] squidy black hash and occasionally hard draw for about 6 years now. How long approx as a 6 foot, 9 and a half stone, 21 year old male in generally good health should it take to be entirely safe to pass a test?
Thinking of stopping and moving towards work in a drug free role where testing would be a regular necessity and would provide a much needed motivation to give up (as well as a long and financially prosperous career hopefully)
Basically how long should I leave it after going cold turkey before thinking about hoping to pass a (urinalysis) drugs test?
I am thinking about 2 months should be ok but hoping for a slightly more educated second opinion.
Cheers, an interesting read anyhow!

Hello Drew. One time use of marijuana can stay in the body and be detected in a urinalysis for a few days after use. You may have enough time between use and testing that you show up NEGATIVE for THC…but only time will tell.

September 9th, 2012
Hi tehboy. From what I’ve read, chronic long term smokers can take AT LEAST 30 days for THC to clear…and even longer. 2 months might be a good starting point, but you might want to buy a few at home drug kits to monitor the THC as it leaves the body. This way, you can test at weeks 6 – 8 – and longer if necessary.

September 10th, 2012
Yea pretty much what I thought.
Thanks for your guidance and I will do that.

I have been clean for 24 days. I was a daily smoker, once a day @ night, for a few years. I NEED a job and they ALL test in California. I have the Medical MJ Card, it makes NO difference, thet still refuse to hire you. How long until you believe I will test clean? I was smoking about 3 small bowls @ night from a sneak a toke.. Thanks for ANY advice
11:11 pm
September 12th, 2012
Hi grnidgirl. Again, it might take up to 45 days, or so, to test clean. Studies have shown people still testing dirty up to 30 days after last toke. But you can monitor your progress with an at home testing kit and then schedule a drug screen once your home kit reads clean. That’s probably the best way to get ready.

I’m a heavy smoker (Daily) for at least 9 years I haven’t smoked for 133 days as of tomorrow, and tomorrow I take a test will respond back with results. Note I failed a test around the second week of July and was told the test goes as far back as 90 day. Tomorrow will be my second test so we will see fingers crossed

Is 25 days long enough to test clean for a once a day smoker??
4:46 pm
September 17th, 2012
Been clean for 7 weeks and tested clean on a previous u.a. Smoked about 5 hits of a joint yesterday. I want to know how long should I wait before taking another drug test so the results are negative?
7:33 pm
September 17th, 2012
Hi Ganja Girl. It would be wise to wait at least a week, if not two (2), before the next drug screen. But you can buy an at home testing kit to get an idea for how much THC is your system before you take an official test.
9:07 pm
September 17th, 2012
Yes 133 days proved good for me. No weed no masking agents straight pure urine, and I tested clean. Yippee!!!! Yes I’ve kept count with an app on my phone like I said in my previous post and with the help of magnum detox I tested positive for THC so a big waste of money. I was smoking like four blunts a day so if your looking for a job 90 days or more if you can. I will say back in 1999 emergency tab quick flush( Now “Herbal cleanse Super QCaps” Google it) help out of a pickle but that’s 14 years ago. So my advice is to hold out for 90 Days or better if you want to pass your UA for a new job. BTW I’m 6’00″ 240 lbs. I hope I will help somebody out who enjoys 420 or as I like to call it A High Functioning Weed Head (No Pun Intended)….GOOD LUCK TO EVERY ONE OUT THERE……….

I took a urine test 4 days ago, and I am nervous as hell!. I am 6’0 168 lbs with a very fast metabolism, and I work out about 3-5 times a week!! What do you think?

Hello Addiction Blog.
I have a question.
i’ve heard from a friend that is a frequent smoker, that the psychologic effects marijuana can cause to your brain after extended periods of use, is fully reversable, when ever you stop.
is this true?
also, fantastic job on the article and the comment section. you seem to really care about your readers.
keep up the good work!

Hi,
I have been off Marijuana for over 7 years and recently got my medical Marijuana card and I smoked for may be a week where I would just take 2 to 3 very small hits from a small bubbler every night for maybe a week or a little less. I have not had any more for a week now. Considering that it was light smoking and I am a skinny guy would this be long enough for my system to be clean if I have to take a drug test next week. All in all it might have been half a gram of Sativa that I smoked over the entire period all together.
6:46 am
September 21st, 2012
I used to be a heavy smoker, hitting small bowls in the gravity bong 2-3 times a day for 4 years. I stayed clean for close to 4 months but recently smoked about .2 grams total yesterday (Wednesday) and today. I have to take a UA 2 weeks from now. What are my chances I test negative?
I’m male, 5’7″ and weigh around 145.
Thanks!

Is it harder to pass a escreen drug test than a stick in the urine drug test (was called a rapid result test). I took a rapid one in the clinic and the second line was faint but visible so the tech said its a negative. I was wondering if I should go ahead with the “smart lid” test or wait. has been 45 days exactly since i last smoked. i was a everyday smoker and weigh 280.
2:29 am
September 29th, 2012
If I took 4 tiny hits 4days ago of resin and didnt get high and I’ve been running and drinking lots of water will I pass a 5 panel drug test and I’m not a heavy user. And Im 5’6 180 more build than fat
3:29 pm
September 29th, 2012
I smoked for the first time in 5 years on the 10th and then again on the 13th of Sept. Im overweight but have been playing tennis and running trying to slim down again. I drink water occassionally but mostly live on coffee. I had to take a urine test yesterday for a new job…it had been 15 days since the last time I smoked..do you think I passed?
7:31 pm
September 29th, 2012
Hi Lee. After such rare and occasional pot smoking, it seems unlikely that a urine screen would detect THC 15 days after consumption. You’ll just have to await the results to be sure.
11:03 pm
September 29th, 2012
hi ive been a really heavy smoker for about 15 months now about 15 bowls a day and 30 in the summer and weekends. i need to know how high my thc level needs to be because ive been on prole for about a month and i may need to take a test. i dont need to pass i just need to make it seem like ive been clean for a month

I have been a daily smoker for 11 years. I am 23 5’4” 105lbs (not much fat). I went to rehab a few years ago and 2 weeks after my last day smoking I had a clean UA. For the past 2 years I have been smoking pot and hash oil (approx 75% thc). I quit today and am hoping to be clean by 10/26. I was mostly wondering if I can somewhat expect to test negative by then based on my previous drug test expirience? Will the fact I was smoking much more potent stuff effect that drasticaly? Thank you

I smoked 4-5 hits from a bong (probably less than half a gram of weed) 16 days ago and have a drug test today. I have a fairly fast metabolism, weighing at 136 pounds. I’m also 6 feet tall and have been 100% clean prior to my last use. I did drink water and keep myself hydrated, but not to the extreme extend like other people have done so. I also used the midstream during my test. I was wondering what would be the odds of me passing a drug test after 16 days?
7:11 pm
October 3rd, 2012
Also, it was my 3rd time going to the bathroom at the time of the test.

I have been clean for 19 months straight and decided to smoke like 5 times (about 2 grams) during a 25 hour period and did not smoke anymore after that. How long will it take for my urine to test negative. I have heard from multiple sources that it will be 3-4 days since my use was extremely infrequent. The chances of me getting tested are very slim but just was curious. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello, I was a heavy marijuana smoker for about 2 years. I haven’t smoked on a regular basis for about 6 months. I completely stopped for 2 1/2 months, but there was a period of about a week in mid-late August when I smoked every day. I didn’t smoke anything for about 3 weeks after that, but then I smoked one bowl and I haven’t smoked since. From the time the I smoked that bowl to the time I will be drug tested, 5 weeks will have passed. In total, it will have been 8 weeks since the one week that I smoked every day. I am a female, about 5’5″ and 125lbs. Do you think I’ll be good?

Hey guys, nice site + feedback, hoping for some feedback here.. On the 24th of august i had 2 joints, havn’t smoked prior to that in 4 years, so been clean but this was a one-off occasion, now on the 15th of october ive got a urine test, so it’ll be about 6-7 weeks after i had a toke.. any idea if it could show up?
3:01 pm
October 15th, 2012
I took 3hits off a joint nine days ago, I am scheduled to go in for a drug test for a job today. I am not sure if it is a urine or blood test because people have said the company chooses that at random. can you tell me more less how long it takes to come out ofmy system for both blood and urine?

I have a new job starting this Thursday (Oct 18th) and I may get a drug test. I smoked a couple hits about 3.5 weeks ago, then smoked another hit about 2 weeks ago, and a couple hits about five days. I used to smoke daily but stopped for 6 months before this most recent usage. I have not and will not start again due to this job. I do like smoking, but it isn’t worth losing a job over. I did take a home test and it came back negative very quickly and with two very dark, distinctive lines. I know the at home tests say they are 99% but I am still nervous and wondering if I should have a back up plan or if I should rely on the results of an at-home drug test. It was the First Choice test for marijuana. Any advice?

I smoked daily for years. In the last 6 weeks, have only taken a few hits a few times, last time being 3 weeks ago. I’m a heavy set female, in my 40′s. Putting in job app’s and want to be clean before I pee for anyone. What do you think my chances are of being clean now? Going to get a home test this weekend to see where I stand. I’ll get back with those results. Oh, after years of daily use, really didnt notice any kind of withdraw. As long as I’m not around it, I dont even think about it. Enjoying remembering dreams after not being able to for years. Much easier to quit pot than cigarettes.

I am on probation and last smoked 33 days ago. I get these thc test kits for a buck a piece at the dollar store. I was a heavy smoker for 10 years straight. My counselor has told me expect to be clean between 60-90 days after last use. I have tested myself about 5 times, Day 14, day 20, day 25, day 29 and yesterday which was day 32. I don’t have a question but just wanted to give the information that if you are a heavy smoker, got some fat on you then you will most likely take a minimum of 60 days to clean your system out. I was on parole back in 2002 and smoked for 3 months straight and it took 62 days to get it out of my system with their sensitive tests. Those who are chronic smokers and in the legal system having to take drug tests…..be truthful to your counselors/probation officers. Have them give you a “levels” test so they know that you are not smoking even if it is in your system with their standard tests. Most of them know it takes forever to get thc out of your system with chronic use. Hope this was helpful.

So i’ve smoked every day for the last couple years. I’ve got a test tomorrow at 2 for probation. Is there anyway to pass this or am i outta luck?
2:21 am
October 25th, 2012
Salty: It depends on how much you smoked previously. If you had never smoked before or it had been at least 90 days then if should be out of your system in a week or two.
Laura: I doubt you will pass. The rule of thumb is 60-90 days for a heavy smoker. 35 days is not impossible but I’d say the odds are against you. Good luck.
skeerd: Niacin does not work. And at high does causes liver damage. Two weeks for an infrequent smoker is probably right on the border. But you have a good chance of passing.
jo: you have NOTHING to worry about if it’s a UA (pee test) like most are.

The product i use doesnt have a high THC level, and i haven been drinking a lot of water since the last time I smoked. Is it possible i can pass the test or is it still alot of THC still in my body?

if a person smokes MJ twice during a period of hours is that considered one time use or does it imply that the second toke may cause metabolites to be retained in adipose tissue; which in turn may increase the time span of the usual “one time” 3-4 days clearance time??? and if so what is your guess of the increased clearance time if both hits were of equal length? 5-7??? last time smoked prior to the weekend Oct 27, was Aug 5.

I have smoked trees for about 27 yrs. I got a violation of probation for coming up dirty. I have totally stopped since 9-11 and have a drug test Monday. I have taken home drug tests and I am still coming up dirty. I am 5’3 and weigh about a 100 lbs. I have to be clean or I go to jail for 4 yrs. Please help me I was sure I would have been clean by now. I cannot go to jail!!!

I have smoked weed for 35 years. I went into a outpatient rehab and they waited 30 days. I took the test and I was clean. I am not an active person and my metabolism is slow. I hope this helps. If you are looking for work or your job has a random policy stay off of it until you retire. Until we as a nation find a way to stop drug testing completely our employers will dictate many aspects of our life. Now it is background, credit and drug tests. WHATS NEXT? Medical records, talking to neighbors or relatives, repeal of the fourth amendment and rummage through your home? They do it in the name of public safety. I don’t buy it. It started with the DOT but it now it is everyone. Accidents happen there are millions of people on the roadways. BTW they will start testing for nicotine.

Hi josh123. Second hand smoke can be detected on drug screens, but the likelihood of a positive test is low. If you find that the test is positive, you can request to submit a hair sample for analysis which helps determine drug use over time.
1:19 pm
November 5th, 2012
i havent smoked in 3 months and i smoked a joint yesterday will the thc be out of my system in 9 days on my drug test

HI. I am an attorney and I have a client who lost approximately 80 lbs after his first positive THC urine test. He is on diversion. I believe his level was 223. He had a test about 60 days later, which was positive at a level 38. He swears that he has not consumed since he has been on diversion. I have seen mention of studies documenting several months detection of THC in chronic users. Any thoughts on how I can go about fighting the results as showing subsequent use? Thanks for your time. Lee.

Hi Lee. Yes. I have a few suggestions:
1.Search the National Library of Medicine PMC on the issue. I found this article there: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2587336/
2. Do a site:.gov restricted search an your internet browser using the keywords, “urine test marijuana detection system” or some similar combination.
3. Look into hair testing to offer evidence of past use.

Hello, I had to take a drug test yesterday and I smoked 17 days prior to taking the test. I am relatively young, around 5’10 and 139-143 pounds (my weight changes almost daily). This was my first time smoking in about two years. I’m a cross country runner, but for the past 2 weeks, I’ve been on break. I drank an excessive amount of water last week and the week before. Do you think I’ll be able to pass?

Hello. I have been a frequent smoker for about 5 years (up to 5 bowls a day) and I have a full medical coming up on Friday the 9th. I’ve got the urine test covered for, but I’m worried about the blood test. I am not sure if they test for marijuana in the blood on a full medical if they’re already doing a urine test, but IF they do, would I fail the blood test if the last time I smoked was Sunday the 4th? Also if I live in a house with 3 other frequent smokers, would being around their second hand smoke affect my blood test in any way? The test is for a REALLY great job and it’s been giving me a shit ton of grief. Your feedback before Nov. 9th would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.

I just wanted to report back some info that might help someone that might be in the same situation i was in a while ago…i posted a question a little over a month ago about smoking for the first time in 5 years and needed to take a drug test for employment…it was a 2 time social smoke about 3 days apart and it had only been about 14 days when i had to take a urine test. my results came back clean, thank God. i didnt drink much water but i do excersize occasionally. i know everyone’s situation and results can vary, but just wanted to let everyone know. hope this might be helpful and hopeful for someone.

Marijuana legalization votes this week in Colorado and Washington state don’t just set up an epic state-federal showdown on drug law for residents. The measures also open the door for marijuana tourism.
Both marijuana measures make marijuana possession in small amounts OK for all adults over 21 — not just state residents but visitors, too. Tourists may not be able to pack their bowls along with their bags, but as long as out-of-state tourists purchase and use the drug while in Colorado or Washington, they wouldn’t violate the marijuana measures.

November 14th, 2012
Will caffeine, along with working out, help my metabolism enough to speed the process of diminishing the THC in my system? If so how much sooner would I pass a urine test? And if not are there any other alternatives to help the process? I smoked daily until about a week ago.
Thank’s for the advice.

I dont smoke every day, just sometimes on the weekends. I smoked a joint last saturday, and the weekend before that, smoked about 3 bowls. I’m 5’4″ and weight 115 lbs. I work out regularly, take adderall (with a prescription), and the last few days i’ve been drinking a ton of water and sitting in the steam room quite a bit. Think I could pass a drug test on Monday or Tuesday?? What else can I do to get my system clean enough to pass?

hi, i am a rare smoker around once or twice a month and smoked three days before a piss test for a job like two months ago and drank a lot of water 24 hrs before and passed, I am 23 years old,slim build, and healthy, i have a very active job and work 40 hrs a week now, i recently took a piss test for another better job and smoked about three grams of regular pot thirteen days before the drug test i did drink some water not a whole bunch the night before and about nine glasses of water before the drug test to make sure i pissed about 7 times the day of the test. What do you think my chances of passing this test are and what do you think the cut off rate the test has. I know they sent the sample to a lab. Please real chances.

I have not smoked for 10 days and have a dipstick piss test in 6 days for a job. I drank 2 quarts of cranberry juice and a gallon of green tea and have been taking B-12 complex along with multivitamins for the past couple of days.

Hi, I smoked about 5 or 6 times over a four day period. I haven’t smoked in about 12 days.
I had to do a urine screen for probation today and am slightly nervous. I have a pretty good metabolism and work long days doing reasonably physical work. I don’t drink a lot of water, but I do drink a lot of Gatorade and energy drinks. I’m 30, 5’10″ and weigh about 160.
Do you think I’ve had enough time to get the THC out of my system?
12:49 am
November 30th, 2012
I’ve noticed you haven’t replied to anyone recently but i’m going to give it a shot anyway I guess. I’ve smoked religiously everyday since I was 12 years old. The past two years i’ve smoked nothing but high grade marijuana. I haven’t smoked since Sunday the 25th and I got a court drug test for a felony (possession of 3 ounces) Dec. 10th. I’ve been taking Niacin daily but that’s pretty much it and i’m scared out of my mind i’m going to fail it. I’m a good 6 feet tall and only 135 lbs on a good day (needless to say i’m not exactly built for jail). I would stab a baby rabbit to smoke a bowl. Any advice would be HIGHly appreciated.
11:56 pm
November 30th, 2012
hey i have a piss test for a job in about 10 days or so. i havent smoked in 3 days. but the 2 weeks before that i had smoked 2 times in the past 2 weeks. and about once a week the month before. do you think i have enough time to pass if i excercise and sweat alot ?

December 4th, 2012
Hi there, I have been a daily smoker for 6 years. Smoke about .25-.5 of a gram of high quality smoke and not much more. While I consider myself a daily smoker I dont think I fall into the “heavy” smoker catagory as I usually only have a few hits from a bowl after work to wind down. Ive been abstaining since Nov 1st and took a home test at 29 days and tested positive still. Starting Jan 1st, 2013 my employer will start random testing so I have a good 60 days. Do my chances of passing sound decent? Im 34, 210 and 5′ 11″. Dont have the fastest metabolism, Id say average I guess. Plan to take another home test about the middle of Dec. Thanks
7:12 am
December 6th, 2012
i have been a heavy smoker for 15 plus years and it took me over 100 days to get a negative result from a home drug test kit. i wonder if i smoked $50 worth in 2 days would it take just as long to get it out of my system if i took 7 days to smoke the same amount? it seems volume has a lot to do with cleansing period as opposed to time since last smoked. P.S. i get home test strips at a National dollar store and they seem to work very well. and will that faint line every get more define as time goes on. it has been 120 days now and the pink line is still faint.

Hi, I Havent Smoked Since Last Summer, About Two Weeks Ago I Smoked A Kush Blunt Friday & A Reggie Blunt Saturday, Both Days It Was Three Heads Smoking With Me, Now (Two Weeks Later) Today I Took A Drug Test At The Hospital… Am I In Trouble??
2:22 pm
December 14th, 2012
Hello! So over 5 months ago I was a pretty heavy smoker, 4-5 times today, about a little less than a gram a day. My last day smoking was july 4th and I have had 2 oopsys since. My first oopsy was a 1 hitter in september. My last oopsy was 20 days ago(about 3 weeks). I smoked about 3-4 hitters when I was very ill. I weigh 135lbs and am 5’2. I work out about 2 times a week and have a pretty low body fat percentage.If I am injured on the job, which there is a pretty decent chance, I must immediatly go get drug tested. Will I be ok?
5:53 pm
December 16th, 2012
Smoked blunts heavily for about 6 years…about 14 grams a week…stopped smoking 3 weeks ago…I don’t have a urinalysis test date…they really want to hire me but I have been pushing back my availability in order to get my system clean…took an at home test a week ago and it came up as “Preliminary” whatever the hell that means lol…Howlong should I expect THC to remain in my system? I drink copious amounts of natural juices and water, work out every other day…I’m guessing at least 60 days to be clean but I doubt they’ll wait that long lol. Probably gonna do the ole “pee-condom” routine just to be safe lol.

3:30 am
December 20th, 2012
Hey I hardly ever smoke weed. I’ve probably only smoked it twice and since I’m new to it when I take a pull I don’t really feel the effects so I don’t even think I did it right. But anyway the point is I did smoke. The last time I smoked was Dec 8. 2012, I may have to take a drug test at the beginning of January. But I plan on taking a home drug test tomorrow so that I will be sure just in case they want to schedule a drug test sooner. Do you think I should be good?
5:35 pm
December 20th, 2012

I’ve been following topics like this for a long time because I’ve been enlisted in the Air National Guard for the last 5 years while attending college. I’ve been going to Guard Drill one weekend a month during this time and there’s always the chance of getting popped with a UA drug test. Every other month or so, right after Guard Drill, I’ll kick it with some friends and smoke a bowl or two before I head back to college the next day. I’ve been drug tested by the Air Force three times after smoking those bowls and have passed every time (29ish days in between drills).
I now have my electrical engineering degree, have applied to several job openings in my area, and have received two very good conditional job offers – one from Lockheed Martin and one from Raytheon. “Conditional” basically means that if I pass a drug test, the job is mine if I want it. Unfortunately, I won’t be working for Raytheon because I slipped up.
I was clean for three months then shared a bowl between three people. Little did I know that I would have interviews with both companies within two weeks. I failed the pre-employment drug test (50 ng/mL cutoff on the paper) for Raytheon after 22 days of no smoking. I knew the odds of me passing weren’t the best. According to a drug test calculator over at thccalc.com, I had about a 75% chance of passing. I’m 6’1″, 170 lbs., 30″ waist, and very physically active. I just submitted my drug test results to their website too.
I’m only replying to this blog to share my experience and to recommend that website for anyone who is freaking out. It might help someone. Lockheed took their time so I won’t be doing their drug test until 36 days after I last smoked.

I was tested on Septemer 15, 2011. I was a very heavy user. Each day after work until I went to bed. Oviously I failed. Company policy was that I had to go to rehab. My initial test in rehab was 138 points. Now this was more than 2 weeks after I stopped. A “normal” level of metabolites that are in the blood stream range from 1-10. There is no such thing as zero metabolites. I tested positive for THC all the way until November 26, 2011. I did not smoke AT ALL during this time, what-so-ever!!!! Nothing, zilch, zero. SO, with that said, THC CAN stay in your system for 60 days. This I KNOW FOR A FACT! I am not sure about the once in a while users, etc. But I have been clean since September 15, 2011. And I plan to stay that way, wasn’t worth all the headaches.

I last smoked on Friday of last week and it was pretty potent but I am not a chronic smoker. I injuryed myself yesterday at work and had to go to the ER and was required to take a UA. I am a curvy extra weight female. I was also in the ER Thursday of last week for serious illness that I had to have an IV of liquids flushed threw me. Would I have a good chance of passing the UA from yesterday. I haven’t smoked since then.

I have a medical marijuana card from my dr. I am scheduled for a urine screening for nursing school. If I present my card will I be okay?
I do not smoke much, but I do occasionally when needed. I will not be smoking on the job and I have wanted to be a nurse my entire life. I am 40′s something. Is it confidential when I give my card to the tech who does the screen?

hi there, my question is about the oral mouth swab test. particularly the oral-eze mouth swab test. i occasionaly smoke however, i just wanted to know the actual cut off times regarding these mouth swabs because apperantly my job can random test or test on suspecion. (recently read the job pamphlet for working at Amazon)
Also does anyone know any masking agents. i’ve read listeren and peroxide. however the only reason i ask is because ive serched and there arent any cetainties regarding the mouth swab test all of the data differs on the web.
i occasionally smoke and am 6’4 and 230 lbs. (once or twice on weekends)
PLEASE HElp. i just wanna be informed

Hello there
I have been using weed since 3 months every night, and my quantity is smaller than usual size of cigarette (very tiny) and also I mixed with cigarette. So here I’m going to give drug test next week. I don’t do workout. will it show on my test???
2:20 pm
January 7th, 2013
I’m 5’10″, 180lbs and only eat about three or 4 pinches of marijuana every other month for the past 3 months. However, my last sprinkling in my food was about 5pm 12/31/1and I was popped with a DOT drug screen on the 3rd of January, 2013. I did not have enough urine on my first sample so I had to wait another hour and a half(and about 15 cups of water later)before urine came out. I also had to do number 2(bowel movement at the same time.
Will eating mj instead of inhaling it make a difference in it getting detected? I also peed midstream only up to line.

January 10th, 2013
hi so im pregnant i have 13 weeks left in my pregnancy. i have been a cronic smoker for almost 10 years. i quit smoking for a month when i was 4 months pregnant. then i smoked for about 2 weeks quit again for 3 weeks then smoked again for about 2-3 more weeks. my doctor told me my baby could go through withdrawls and i should smoke out of a glass pipe till my third trimester then she would give me medication to help cope. well i havent taken any medication i just quit she said the medication could be harmful before the 3rd trimester. well im honestly addicted to smoking. and this is very hard however i dont want my child taken away from me when i give birth. so i guess my question is will 3 months and 3 weeks be enough time to get this out of my system if given a urine test? how long do you think it would stay in my system? and my unborn babies system? and how long will this stay in my blood? and will drinking plenty of fluid help reduce the thc levels or remove it from by urine if im frequently urinating?
2:34 am
January 10th, 2013

Hey I consumed marijuana orally twice and smoked it twice only too on December 18th and 19th , and I have a drug test on 14th of January, are the chances of the urine test being positive quite high? I also work out regularly at least 4 times a week and i drank plenty of water. Your help is much appreciated, thank you!

January 11th, 2013
I’ve had my experience with taking drug tests. I’ve been a heavy smoker (10+ bowls a day) to a light smoker (a couple one hitters a day) and have experimented taking home drug tests than also sending them in to the lab to verify the results. I’ll try to remember to check back every once in a while since main blogger seems to not be responding lately.
Sean – I’m no scientist or dietitian, but I believe THC is absorbed into the body and treated the same as if it were smoked. For me, if I smoked for a weekend (2-3 days), it would take my body around 2 weeks to come out clean. I do, however, work out 6 times a week, drink plenty of water, and have a fairly low body fat content. I would say you will be good, though, judging from the fact you do work out and drink a lot of water. If you want to be sure though, go buy a home drug test a day or two before you test. If you don’t pass, you might be able to find someone to piss for you and just put it in a container and keep it warm till you get to the clinic. I’ve used other people’s piss and I’ve never had a problem keeping it right temp or getting caught. Good luck!
Brittany – That’s a tough call. It’s good you drank a lot of water as when THC is released from the fatty cells, it exits the body via urine. The more you piss, technically, the cleaner you will become, but I wouldn’t rely to heavily on that statement. Drinking a lot also slightly increased your metabolism. Judging from your measurements, you’re in good shape with low body fat, which greatly helps. If I was a betting man, I would give you a 50/50 shot. The fact you already took the test though means you can no longer do anything about it. So I just wouldn’t sweat it and wait for the results. Nothing you can do now anyways.
Jessica – Congrats on your pregnancy! I’ve never heard of anyone having THC still in their system after 3 months, even the heaviest of smokers. As I do not know much about unborn infants, I will do my best to state what I know and perhaps you could do some homework of your own. My cousin smoked during her pregnancy as it helped with some of the things that you go through during pregnancy. According to her doctor, THC will stay in the babies system as long as it would stay in her system. He gave her a time frame of 30-60 days. That is very broad but, in your case, if you gave yourself 90+ days, I would bet that you and your baby will be THC free. I also wouldn’t be too worried about the CPS. There are plenty of stories though from mothers who went through what you are now, though. You should read up on them. It may put your mind at ease. Good luck to you and your own!
Me – You”ll be detected.
Heather – Yes.
Switch – Consuming MJ instead of smoking it doesn’t have a significant difference with THC being stored in your cells. The fact that was your first in a month+ and you did have a few days, it may come clean. Good luck!
Giwan – If I had to put a percentage on you passing, maybe a 15%?
Tanuj – Feel at ease as you will most likely pass. If you want to be safe though, drink plenty of water, get a workout or two in, and you’ll for sure pass.
Sorry to other’s above Tanuj, I am getting tired and I could be at this all night. Remember, I’m not an expert but I do know the good feeling when you get a comforting second opinion from another experienced week smoker.

I quit yesterday, but smoked a couple joints each day for the past 4-5 months. I have a SS disability screening coming up in 2 weeks. (BTW mj works better for pain than the narcotics and fewer side effects.) Does anyone know if they will pee test me if I’m seeking SSI disability for a spine condition? Should I change my appt to a later date?
2:36 am
January 12th, 2013
Alleycat – What I’ve read and heard is that recently, most SS screenings will require a drug test twice a year. It makes sense. I read mixed stories, some say just blood, others urine. You get two chances to pass the test. I suppose if you want to be safe, you could change the appt to a later date and take home drug tests till you come clean then set up the appt.

January 12th, 2013
So I’ve smoked for about 7 to 8 years,almost everyday about 3-4 times average. I quit 21 days ago. I have an interview on the 21st with a possible offer and drug test about a week later, so by the end of January. I’ve been drinking Green Tea and Cranberry juice and water everyday, sometimes 1 or 2 bottles of gatorade for trade off. I’m a heavy set guy, 5’10″ 270 lbs. The job I’m applying for is an engineering job and I will probably be asked to take the test in a lab. My question is will about 40 days be enough to get clean to pass an drug test. If not, still having about 15 days more at least, what can I do to clean my system. I’ve been doing lite exercise for a couple of months and for about a week I’ve been running a bike for 30 min. I don’t have great eating habits, not bad just not great and Christmas didn’t help.
My question is will about 40 days be enough to get clean to pass an drug test.

I smoke on occasion, a hit here or there less than weekly. I had two hits on 12/26 and then a hit on 1/6. I am overweight, but drink a lot of water daily. How long would it be before I am in the clear for a urine test? I may need to have one this week- about 9 days after the last use.

January 14th, 2013
Nope. I smoked all day every day for two years. Quit Oct 22, 2012 and tested positive on Jan 7, 2013. 11 weeks later. After tons of water, juice and exercise. My advice is to go to a private testing facility and request to be tested for personal reasons. It cost me 35$ but was worth it.

Hi,
I am 5′ 8″ 135-140 lbs smoked about 4-6 days a week, probably a gram a week if that. I was wondering the likelihood of me passing a drug test for a job drug screen. It will have been 60 days since I last smoked. Thanks!

January 17th, 2013
Hi, I’ve been smoking for about 2 years now. I’m not a heavy smoker, just sort of moderate/occasional. I’m 5’8″ and have an athletic body (maybe 10-12% body fat, exercise about 4 times a week). I smoke probably about 3 times a week. Just today (1/16/12) I took a urine drug test for a Bank job. As to prepare for this, I stopped smoking on 11/26/2012, so it’s been exactly 51 DAYS since I have smoked POT. My question is, based on the information I have provided, how do I stand? I’m not too educated on drug tests, so what are my chances that I might piss CLEAN OR DIRTY?
9:13 am
January 17th, 2013
I’ve smoked everyday for over a year. Weigh 140 lbs. and skinny.I;m not active…but not lazy Last day smoked was Christmas and I have a test Friday Jan 18….I drink Heavy amounts of RedBull (No lectures please) and water and tea daily. I also take vitamins daily. This will be a send out test not a dip…what are my chances looking like?
2:12 am

I SMOKED AND BINGED FOR A WEEK LONG BUT I WAS 122 DAYS CLEAN TOOK A LAB TEST AT 50 NG IS THAT ENOUGH TIME TO PASS A URINE TEST.

January 21st, 2013
I am getting drug tested tomorrow for a job. I ate a small part of a weed brownie about 3 weeks ago before I knew I would have a drug test. Other than that, I can’t remember the last time I smoked. I have been working out a lot and sweating the past month. Do you think I’ll pass?
1:11 am
January 26th, 2013
hello! so today is 1/25/13 and for school reasons, we will probably get drug tested 2/22/13. I have been a HEAVY MARIJUANA user for 12 years now, on and off…. but more on than off. say if i were to not smoke from now until then, will i come up clean!? tough call, i’d say…
12:43 am
January 27th, 2013
hi, i was wondering; i am 150lbs 5″7 and didnt smoke for 2 months, but then before school i smoked 3 out of the first 5 days. is it possible that since thc is metabolized in fat, if i fasted for 12 hours after smoking the thc didnt really get stored in my fat?
and if thc i stored in my fat and i knew what weight i was at the time of smoking, couldn’t i just lose 5-8 pounds prior to a drug screening to lower the time it stays in my system ?
thanks

It is impossible to become physically addicted to weed. Yes mental addictions are possible. I have seen it. But that is all they are is mental. As a smoker of cigs I can tell the difference between a real addiction and one that is in your mind. I have gone through nicotine withdrawals and let me tell you they are no fun.
9:11 pm
January 30th, 2013
I haven’t smoked in 18 days and I still dropped 80 ng/ml. That would probably get me flagged for a job huh.

January 31st, 2013
Hi. After almost 10 years of being clean, i started smoking again about 2 months ago but iv’e only been smoking maybe once every 2 weeks so very rarely. I recently smoked on saturday the 26th and i have a drug test on Wed 6th which would be 11 days from the last time i smoked. How good do you think my chances are of passing? I’m skinny and have a fairly high metabolism.
12:45 pm
February 2nd, 2013
I smoked last Saturday, and shared a blunt with two other people.. I took like four hits, but the problem is that I had to take a drug test 6 days later… Do you think I will pass it?
6:53 pm
February 2nd, 2013
Just to let yall know…after my last post…I had my test and passed. I guess the red bull I drink faithfully and all the water i drank helped! Thankfully!

Hello, I am currently 300 pounds, an athlete and havent smoked in 27 days. I lift and run 5 days a week and sweat profusely in those times. Would I be considered “clean” by now?

February 7th, 2013
Hello. I took one hit of weed and i rarely smoke, im not a smoker actually, i just did it because i was drunk. ive been drinking lots of water because i hear it helps. i have a drug test in 2 days and the last time i took this one hit was a few weeks ago. will i pass a urine test?
7:20 am
February 7th, 2013
I am 5ft 8, and weigh 260 Ibs. I rarely smoke. I went three months without smoking, and then Feb 2nd, and 3rd I got high. I did maybe5 hits each day.
I have a pee test next tues, the 12th. What are my chances of being clear? I read your article but I am still worried. I am sedentary.. So should I work out and try and burn the fat? Or just lay low and pray? (I know that in 8-9 days it probably won’t make a difference)
I would appreciate feedback, as fast as you can allow. Thanks!

They say it takes around 6 months roughly to be clean of THC, but does that not differ depending on how regular a toker the person is. I know some folks who smoke a Henry everyday.
6:38 pm

I have not smoked in 30 days. I am 5’3 and around 165lbs. I have to take a drug test in about two weeks. What can I do to pass the urine test.

I’m a pretty frequent smoker, not every day but quite a bit. I’m a male 6″1 175 pounds how do you think the THC will stay in my system?

February 12th, 2013
I am 6 foot 155 pounds and havent smoked since January 1st with my last two uas being clean the first on febuary second. On Febuary 10th i took one hit of very low quality marijuana (swag) how long will it remain in my system. Will drinking water, working out or sweating it out in a sana, and eating healthy help get it out of my system faster and how long can i expect it to stay in my system for?
12:29 pm
February 13th, 2013
I have been a long time, light user for 35 years (I’m in my early 50′s). I’m also 6’3″ 250 with a big old gut. When I say “light” I mean literally 3-4 hits a week of average grade, not the potent stuff. But it’s every weekend and has been this way for decades.
I’m about to be on the job market, just don’t know when. So I figured I’d try to get my levels down as I’ve obviously got a lot stored up. Is there any advantage to going a few weeks off (I’m in my 2nd week now) and then resuming say 1-2 hits a week? Will that allow me to clear up faster than I would clean up after decades of casual use? Or do I need to get totally clean first in order to shorten the time lapse from last hit to clean test?
3:19 pm
February 17th, 2013
Im 6’1 weight like 145 and the last time i really smoked a whole blunt was Januarary 30,2013 and on Feb.8 i was drunk and hit a blunt 3 times and didn hit it anymore then the next time i hit a blunt was on Feb.16 but i been drinking Bud Lights those day i did hit those blunt a couple of times…Do you think my system will clean by March 1? If not can you estimate the dat you think it will be clean?

I’m 5’6″, 135 lbs, female, smoked around half a gram a day for the last 21/2 years. Stopped cold turkey Jan. 29; been drinking about 3/4 of a gallon a day, green tea, aloe Vera juice 2 to 3x a day, and azo, 2x a day. Wasted time and $$ on 5 day detox. Already had to cancel first drug test. Failed 2 home drug tests, ( 2nd after 3 weeks clean). How much longer to test negative; please help!
4:08 pm
February 19th, 2013
Sorry; I stopped smoking on Jan.29, and actually smoked more like a gram a day. Trying to be realistic as to how long it will take to cleanse my system and pass UA. Thanks so much in advance. Wish I had come to this site first! I appreciate all the good & accurate info. Once again, save your money on detox drinks. You passed the UA on your own, without the help help of any miracle cures.

Hey i have been smoking weed for ten years everyday heavily how long will i have to wait before i can say it is out of my system i have a emit test coming up and would really be thankful for the straight forward truth i have been clean for 40 days but have been around people while they have been smoking what is the situation doc.

I am 5’2”, 110 pounds. I smoke usually about 3 times a week. I didn’t smoke any for 2 weeks. I hit a bowl 3 times 4 days ago. How long until I will be clean? And any tips for clearing my system quicker?
Thanks!

February 20th, 2013
Hi, I have a urine test coming up in one week. I rarely smoke the THC (but smoke a small puff twice this week and once last week) I am healthy, lean, run 15-20 mins a day and on a herbal detox supplement. Is it safe to say I have a chance in passing?
12:00 am
February 22nd, 2013
love this site!….smoked several pipefuls a day of very good stuff for a week ending 8-11-12 and just took the urine test 2-18-13….have been clean 6 months….before August hadn’t smoked for about two years….am 5’7″ about 165 in good health and shape….I should be okay, right? am I being paranoid?

February 22nd, 2013
Hello. I am 61 – weigh 195 – height is 6′. I have smoked a bowl or two every evening for several years. I stopped 3 1/2 months ago. I slipped and took a couple of hits a couple of weeks ago. Nothing since. How vulnerable am I to a urinalysis? Thank you.
4:34 am
February 24th, 2013
I smoked about 2 weeks ago and only took about 4 hits. Im 16 and could possibly have a drug test for a job coming up. I weigh about 145 pounds and am pretty skinny. That was the first time ive smoked in about a month and a half do you think its out of my system by now?
4:53 am

February 25th, 2013
Hey. I find it odd that you keep saying that the detection window is so long, especially since you’ve apparently read articles from the ndci. According to THEIR research http://www.ndci.org/sites/default/files/ndci/THC_Detection_Window_0.pdf
It would be UNLIKELY for ANYONE to test positive for more than 21 days at the 20ng/ml level and UNLIKELY for ANYONE to test positive for more than 14 days at the 50mg/ml level (the standard urinalysis cut off). What gives?
12:26 pm
February 25th, 2013
As the moderator said get a test kit and find out where you stand.

Hello Alec. Actually, the references in regard to long term use of cannabis and the presence of metabolites in urine provided above are taken from the National Center for Biotechnology Information’s database, and specifically from the October 2009 Journal of Analytical Toxicology report on “Urinary Elimination of 11-Nor-9-carboxy- 9-tetrahydrocannnabinol in Cannabis Users During Continuously Monitored Abstinence”. The studies found in the report you reference may be outdated, as the latest report was in 1999. Please feel free to compare and contrast the reports and draw your own conclusions.

Hey,
Great blog! I’ve bookmarked this place for future reference… Lots of useful info.
Now my question and concern is about the lower cutoff levels of a CC-MS test which I’m expecting to take in a few days, compared to the home tests. I’m about 90% positive everything will be fine; have a really fast metabolism, not much body fat and in good shape. Took one hit Sunday before last (17th of Feb) and had been clean for a couple months before that. I’m sure all the THC was long out of my system before the 17th.
What I’m wondering is does the Test line being any more faint than the Control line on the home drug tests, give any indication as to how close to the cutoff I am? I am certain that the home test I took last Thursday the Test line was just a bit more faint than from the home test I took today..which would mean that the amounts of whatever the test is looking for is becoming less and less, right?

I tried marijuana for the first time a week ago and I want to know how long it stays in my body. At work we get random drug tests so will it show that I smoked?

Hi i had about 2 small bongs a week ago and don’t usually ever smoke i have been drinking bulk water and carrot,apple,celery,ginger,beetroot and lettuce juce. How long do you think it will stay in my system.
If i take over the counter pain relief and it is detected as an opiate they send it to the lab to confirm it was pain relief not something else should an employer refuse you a position?
This happen to me 2 weeks ago i had 2 panafen plus tablets they have 12.5mg of codein each tab then the day after did a medical and got refused by the big boss to go full time even though the lab verified i took pain relief.
Cheers

Roxanna: If you have never smoked before I’m pretty sure it’s out of your system within a week or 10 days. As stated get a drug testing kit to be sure.

I have been a long time, light user for 35 years (I’m in my early 50′s). I’m also 6’3″ 250 with a big old gut. When I say “light” I mean literally 3-4 hits a week of average grade, not the potent stuff. But it’s every weekend and has been this way for decades.
I’m about to be on the job market, just don’t know when. So I figured I’d try to get my levels down as I’ve obviously got a lot stored up. Is there any advantage to going a few weeks off (I’m in my 2nd week now) and then resuming say 1-2 hits a week? Will that allow me to clear up faster than I would clean up after decades of casual use? Or do I need to get totally clean first in order to shorten the time lapse from last hit to clean test?

hey guys quick question..I’m being submitted to weekly drug testing as a result of some trouble I was in. I’m not expected to be clean for multiple testing periods however they are expecting a decrease in THC levels every week. I currently run 1 mile bike 5 miles and sit in a sauna for 20-30 minutes every day to decrease my levels. If I were to smoke 2 bowls of bud today, continue my same workouts 7 days a week. An increase in THC levels would not show or would it?

And as a reply to Angie’s comment above mine, you will be absolutely fine passing a mouth swab test in 2 weeks

I have smoked continuously(3-5 times a day) of very good quality marijuana for about 3 years now, and I just barely stopped smoking for a day now. I am 6’0″, 160 lbs, very little fat mostly muscle, fast metabolism and very active in exercise. I want to continue to use marijuana but very lightly..what quantity and what time frame should I use marijuana to be able to cleanse myself of THC in days to up to a week? And does smoking cigarettes affect my chances of getting clean within days to a week?
Thank you!

ok, so there is not much reliable information on how long marijuana stays in your system. I have been smoking for 3 years strait and ALOT!!! i want to clean my sytem out and i have an unknown drug test comming up at some point in the next couple of weeks possibly a month, maybe 2 months? for a program i am interested in getting into (school) Its so so important to me and i am definitly going to test myself with a home test before i am scheduled to go, but i would like to know if there are any ideas as to how long i should expect to test positive. I am going to start working out and trying what i have read up on like drinking water (more then i already do) any thing that could help im willing to do. i recently had cancer and have been learning alot about health and such so im not so much interested in a cleanse but if i have to so be it… so any ideas or comments would be appreciated! thanks

Ok guys, I took my 4th at home drug test on Mar. 18 and finally saw a very faint line. Again, I stopped smoking Jan. 29. (Had just a couple tokes twice over a month apart.) I tested about every 2-3 weeks. Detox cleanser didn’t work and I smoked everyday for over 2 1/2 yrs. Drinking water, green tea and taking vitamins. Working out would help. Hope this helps someone as the expert seems to be on vacation. Good luck everyone!

Hello I smoked daily for about 3 months. The last day that I smoked was March 8th. I havent smoked since then and I took a home test today and still did not pass. I have to go test tomorrow but the place i am goin to checks the urine for dilution as well as detox chemicals. If your urine is diluted you automatically fail. can anyone give me any advice on what i can do to make sure i pass so that i dont have to go through any rehab program….again the last time i smoked was March 8th…thanks

I had a little binge 30 days ago. I smoked 4 grams plus a bong hoot over a three day period. I took a utest 20 ng/ml home test, and had an extremely faint pink line. That was April 3. Today I’m going to get another test and I’m hoping the pink line turns to a solid red line. I’ll post after I have it done. Wish me luck, I have a UA for a job in the Alberta oilsands tomorrow. I need to pass

Hi, I have smoked 1-2 joints a night for about 1-2 months now and I may have a urine test in 3 weeks I’ve been clean for 2 days now and I was just wondering if the chances of me passing were good or not. My general health isn’t so great as I’ve got; reactive arthritis, kaposi’s sarcoma and osteoporosis as I’m on other medication would it slow down the detoxing process? Many thanks.

Hello there- love your site!
I’m a 22 yr. old, 6’0, 215 pound male. Gettin kinda flabby (college). The first and only time I smoked was in the early Fall of 2012; over the course of roughly 2 weeks I got high two or three times. But my question is more about second hand smoke. My friends smoke all the time, and although I don’t get to see them often, I’m afraid it’ll impact my drug test (urine) tomorrow. I’m always careful not to inhale it. 12 days ago I was at a party, and they were smoking. I was outside for most of it, and when I went inside to sleep the smoke and even the smell was gone from the room they were smoking in. I’ve been all nervous around them since I’ve started anticipating this drug test, and it’s finally here!
How’s it looking for me? My friends think I’m all set.
