Had Drug Test 12 Days After Smoking Marijuana. Will I Have Passed It ?

Hello, I am wondering if I passed a drug test I took 12 days after smoking marijuana.
I am 18 years old, 5'3, and weigh approx. 170 pounds.
It was my first use in 2 weeks. I have smoked every few weeks for a couple of months now. Most times, every 2 weeks.
I do not exercise as often as I should and drank about 4 cups of water throughout the 6 hours before the test. It was still yellow but pale.

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

Usually, marijuana is detectable in urine for about a week to 10 days after the last use. But you should also known that this is just an rough average estimate and often urine tests can detect marijuana use even after a few weeks of use.

This variation in drug detection times depends on several factors like the frequency and severity of use, the potency of the drug, etc. In your case, though the chances of detection are less, you still can't be sure whether you'll pass the test.

Wish you all the best.

Regards,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
