Hi guys. I am a daily smoker, but havent for about a couple months because I knew I was getting laid off and would have to start looking for a job, and of course knowing most jobs require a drug test. :( I was offered a job and had to take a drug test within 48 hours, which was Fri. I did a home test and it came back positive for THC. So I went and picked up some PROTOX. The lady gave me the same directions on how to use which I have read the same for other detox products. So I am bascially wondering if anyone has heard of or have used this product b4? Just wanting to give myself piece of mind. Thanks.

You haven't smoked for 2 months and came up poitive on a home test ?!?! That thing was obviously junk.

As for the Protex, or Protox (you spelled it both ways) I can't find anything on it. Never heard of it.

If you haven't smoked in 2 months you should have all the piece of mind in the world you need.

Thank you. I did have piece of mind till I took that damn test, then I got worried. My husband still smokes but usually goes down stairs, I was never in the same room so that is how I figured I came up positive.

Advil can cause false positves on home tests.
Did you take any ibuprofen.
I have had that happen.

To fail a urine test after two months is crazy, especially an antibody test. You must have a false positive.

After 2 months either you're not telling us everything or the test kit was defective. Can't imagine you would turn up positive after 60 days...unless you're, how to say this delicately, a big person. The more overweight you are the longer it takes to clean out the system. A friend of mine who's a good 40 or 50lb overweight took about 45 days before he tested clean on a home test.
I am 5'8" and 145 with a fairly high metabolism and was able to test clean in under 30 days.

I will second that the biggest thing is weight.
A over weight person will take much much longer to clean out.
Usually people who are overweight have slow metabolisms and dont exercise.

All of these are very key.
