Should I Fake Sick And Take The Drug Test At A Later Date ?

Last night (Saturday) I tried pot brownies for my first time. I only had half a brownie though and I promise I'm not the type! Anyway, I have to take a drug test this upcoming Saturday I'm wondering A) What all can I do to get it out of my system and B) if i can, should i fake sick and take the drug test at a later date? I heard that injesting marijuana might take longer to get out of your system than smoking it. I've never even smoked it! Please help me, I'm a good person, I promise!!

You promise you're not the type? You make it seem like people who smoke weed are bad.. If anything you should stand up for yourself and your privacy and refuse the drug test. I would never work for a company that digs that deep into my privacy - it's insulting and discriminatory. Marijuana is much safer than consuming alcohol, so ask them if they also drug test for alcohol, and if they don't that they should test for that first before testing for a less harmful, natural drug such as marijuana.

If anything, people who enjoy marijuana are nicer, smarter, and more fun to be around as they aren't afraid of trying new experiences. After all, life is about experiences and marijuana is definitely one to enjoy.

if u r an athletic person of average weight for you hieght than it will take much less time for the thc to be removed from your body and if this is your first time and you only had half of a brownie than it shouldnt take long to remove itself if u r are this type of person but drink alot of water to be safe. local pawn shops will often sell things to clear your system but i wouldnt put my trust in these products. synthetic urine can also be bought in pawn shops and it is fake pee and it is very helpfull in a drug test but if u cant make it to a pawn shop than i suggest to excersise alot because thc is stored in your fat cells. and drink as much water as u can. good luck and if they r testing u because you r on probation than be carful and dont make this mistake again. iv gone through this situation befor and it does not help to keep smoking wen u kno your gonna get drug tested

It does takes longer time to get rid of ingested marijuana, compared to the smoking. You can try having a lot of fluids (water about 10-12 glasses per day), it will help to flush out the drug.

there are hundreds of pieces of advise on how to achieve a clean UA. The local herbal shop should have tea that will clean your system. Follow the instructions on the label and hope. It takes 28 days for the THC to flush from your system if you do nothing.
