Hello everyone
I've got a drug test for a new job coming up. It's at a LabCorp facility, next Mon.
It has been 21 days since I last smoked, however was smoking chronically prior (about 1-2 times a day)
What is my best option?
Number -1?
Water/exercise/vitamins?
Detox?
Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it.
For a preemployment screen i would buy Quick Fix and substitute. Its 100% effective if you get your temperature between 90 and 100 degrees. Then you can keep on tokin.:jointsmile:
Went looking around some the headshops here in town, and come to find out, not only don't any of them carry "substitute" products, but there are apparently illegal in this state. Guy at the shop, tells me no one in town will be selling it, and it's a felony offense if you caught using it in this state.Quote:

Went to a few other shops, they were all pushing this "StatFlush" Cleanser product. So hesitantly we ended up buying it. Does anyone know anything about this stuff? Seems pretty hokey to me .
So here's the situation:
Been 18 days since - the day of testing will likely make it 21.
Been vaping at a rate of 1 Bpack a day for about 2 months, prior to much much more 1/8 -1/4oz./week +/-. Good bud....
Last date of indulgence (18 days ago) vaped about an 1/8th over the weekend. This test is for my wife, she's about 5'5" - 125lbs. works out fairly regularly, eats very well - low fat, high fiber diet.(veggie)
This is pretty important job, and she really needs to slide on this. The test will likely be in 5 days. Should she keep drinking tons of water, exercise exercise exercise, fiberous foods? or go less exercise more fatty foods, we've been reading conflicting advice.
Dilution best option right now?
Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated, we're freakin out a bit.
Thanks for your time and any help you can provide
(sorry for the long post)
Take the stat flush back its just a waste of money. Dilution will be your best bet since you cant get the synthetic urine. Be sure that she reads the creatine loading link in the dilution sticky, its very important for the test. I would buy yourself a couple of home test kits to see where she stands. The exercising and high fiber diets will help. Don't overload on water, just tell her to keep her body hydrated. Metamucil is a great source of fiber if you cant get enough through your daily diet. Hope this helps and good luck.
Thank you very much, it's nice of you to come around here and share your wisdom with us less savvy folks. Insight like this makes all the difference. I really do greatly appreciate it. Thank you DeigeQuote:

So I'll read up on the creatine loading. We picked up a couple of home strips and she's going to run a practice dilution test this afternoon. She's be using some Metamucil as well through the weekend, to try to purge anything she can.
Do you know anything about, the notion of not exercising and eating fattier food is a good solution in the final days? We've read some posting that say you are encouraged not workout and eat fatty food a couple days before the test, to remove more THC from the bloodstream, and thus out of your urine and bond it to your fat cells? We're in the home stretch now, and we don't know if she should be exercising and eating healthy, or not and eating greasy.
Again, that's so much. You're a good man
Damn these marijuana laws, and damn these employers. Why is it the substance that has the least effect on your ability to function, mental capacity and is less habitat forming than nearly every other substance out there, stays in your system the longest. It's not like we're meth addicts here, we just like to vap a nug at the end of the day.
Yes your are correct.. she should stop exercising and eat fattier foods a couple days before the test. You say its on Monday... I would start with the laziness first thing Saturday. If you have anymore questions bump. Good luck!
It always makes me feel good when i can help someone beat the dreaded piss cops.:thumbsup:

I've got a test at LabCorp tomorrow, I saw on an old post either on this site or another that they may ask for more than 2 oz. I am planning on subbing with QuickFix and I have 2 oz. of it. Is there a chance they could ask for more than 2 oz. of urine? Any help appriciated.
Good luck to you sirQuote:

Please let me know how the process goes tomorrow, my wife just tested NEG. in a take home test, using the dilution method (practice run) but we're still thinking about searching out some subsitute product, as a fall safe. It all depends on the level of privacy given at the facility if she'd be comfortable enough to use it, from what I've read, for Pre-employment they just send you to a bathroom with your pockets emptied. In which case using one would be A-OK.
She followed the Dilution sticky info. to a T, and her results showed quite conclusively that she was negative for THC (piss was a bit bright, but not outrageous)
Thanks
Looks like your wife should be fine with dillution on UA day.
2ozs is all you need for a test but I too have occassionally run into techs who want a little more. You have a choice.
1: Quit smoking for a few days and follow the dillution sticky the morning of the test.I usually do this as a precaution. If they want a little more than 2 ounces I use a little of my heavily dilluted urine.
2: Use the 2 ounces of QF and say thats all you could do. If they won't accept 2 ounces they have to write in the report that you gave 2 ounces but wanted more.
As I come out of the bathroom, Before they can even say anything I say, I'm sorry but thats all I could go. I even toss in a joke that 5 years ago I would have filled 20 of those little cups. They all say the same thing, Thats fine and I even dump some back in the toilet after they get there sample.Quote:

Hello everyone
Does anyone know, what your chances of passing a Labcorp test if you've successfully passed a take home test?
It was a Home Check First Panel THC test from Walgreens, says it's 99.9% accurate. My wife passed one with 2 very noticeable lines (indicating a negative -for presence of THC). We feel good about the results, but are uncertain if a negative on this test will yield a negative at the more advanced Lab analysis. She followed the dilution sticky to a T, the color and gravity looked pretty good, so that shouldn't be a concern.
Thanks for your help
im not sure, but i do want to tell you this, i just took my test with the QF at LabCorp and im telling you its almost to easy. Get the Temp right and youre GOLDEN. I walked in the room shut the door and did my duty. as for your question with the 2oz, the guy said fill it to 45 ml at least, the QF was 60!
good luck!
This was brought up a while back regarding faintness of lines. Some agree that faintness of lines does matter and some disagree. Your lab test is going to be a little more extensive but the home test are quite accurate. Lab testing uses immunoassay first then confirms non-negative results using GC/MS. If your wife is passing the home test I give her a 99% chance of passing the lab test.
Was she diluting to pass or was this a first void of the day pass? Also, was the test line dark or faint?
ThanksQuote:

Today she took another test, this time without any dilution method, just strickly using her own natural levels, and she read negative again, however this time the line was very faint. We're thinking of going with the dilusion method for the test, although, begining to wonder if it would be more of fail safe to just go with a subsitute.
What are your opinions given how's she's testing?
Thanks a lot man, We really appreciate it.
If you can substitute then I would, its 100% effective. But judging by her test results I would say she will pass using dilution. Two passed tests and 2+ days to go are great odds. Its purely up to you and I know how hard these decisions are. I wish you guys the best of luck.
Keep us posted.:thumbsup:
Thanks man. I appreciate you coming back on and giving advice. It is a tough call on what to do.
I guess she will do another test run tomorrow morning and see what the results are...if it is still looking good then she will go with dilution. If not, then we make a quick trip to WI.
Thanks again.
She took the test today and everything went smoothly. She diluted this morning to have a back up method but ended up subbing because it was very convient to do so.
I guess everyone was right, the first time just lead to many more worries than need be - subbing was very easy and the temperature was spot on.
Thanks for all the great advice and support. Now I need some advice about an upcoming drug screen and physical - can't wait for this all to be over! I made a post about it, if anyone has any knowledge on the subject.
Thanks again everyone.
Congrats... QF again and again!:jointsmile:
Thanks for all your help, she ended up using Dr. Greens (all we could find) got the job, no problems. And as you had said, the anxiety of it was worse than the actual practice of doing it.Quote:
