Question: Hi, I'm concerned because I smoked 1/2 joint and took a drug screen 27 days later. I am not a regular user, in fact, it had probably been 3 months before that and that was only 1/2 joint. I am 5'4 and weigh 210. Do you think that I should pass that drug screen?

It was marijuana that was about 3 years old.I am super concerned because I have a license that could be on the line if it turns out positive and am considering calling the employer and telling them that I have decided not to take the position.

Brief Answer:
I will explain you everything in detail.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You smoked marijuana. Marijuana detection depends on many factors like amount, individual metabolism rate, cut off value of test etc. Overall it can be detected in urine for 1 to 6 days in infrequent user. It can be detected in blood for 2 to 3 days. So after long period there is no chance of detection in routine drug test.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
