Are Home Tests For THC Accurate??

[coastwaves]

I have a drug test (urine) tomorrow AM and have tested clean on several at-home tsts that I bought at CVS. But I smoked last week. Kind of nervous. Anyone know how these stack up compared to lab tests?

Thx!

Depends what kind of test you're getting. It it is like a dipstick you may be fine, GC/MS I would be worried.

Home testing kits are not very accurated though, depending on the brand you could be prone to both false negatives and false positives.

Its the kind you pee in a cup and then take 4 drops from a dipper and and drop it in a small hole on a plastic little card. There are two lines- a control line and a line for the THC. If you get two solid lines you are "clean" after waiting 3-6 minutes.

MY opinion on this one is this. The lab use the SAME cut off levels as the ones at CVS AND RITE AID. The best one is the one made by PHAMATECH. I bet that if you tested clean on 2 home test then you should be fine.

Remember thAT 50/15 CUT OFF IS 50/15.

HOPE THIS HELPS
