Drug Test Situation

[thisisaustin92]

i know theres prob. a thousand of these but I just want some opinions on wether or not you guys think i passed


I'm a casual smoker, smoke every other day or so and usually just a blunt. I hadn't smoked in 5 days and in that time period I took 5,000 mg of niacin 2 of those nights. Look I know theres alot of debate on wether or not niacin works but I've seen a lot of my friends work miracles with it, I know i can't show the niacin is whats did it but i def. have some confidence in it.
I normally drink a good amount of juice and the day before I drank about a gallon of water and pissed so many times.
I also steamed up my bathroom with a hot shower and sat in a sonna and sweated my ass off the day before.
day off my test i drank a 32 ounce bottle of watter that morning and 4 hours before my test i followed this guy onlines instruction of drinking 65% gatorade and 35% water. ended up being two 32 ounce bottles of orange gatorade and almost a full 32 ounce bottle of water. when i pissed for the UA it was not clear, although it was not a super bright yellow it didn't really seem to look very "diluted"

I'm 6 foot and 160 pounds, pretty skinny, athletic, and fast metabolism.

I took the test last tuesday so 10 days ago from today and labcorp never called me to tell me i failed. i called the MRO number that was on the sheet my hopefully soon to be employer gave me like i saw some say on here and the guy just told me my results were sent to them already on the 19th. does that mean i prob. passes considering if i failed labcorp would have called me, or atleast thats what i've read throughout this sight. and i haven't heard from the employer yet, maybe there just scheduling my first day or something?

i realize this is my first post and its about my drug test, I apologize I could really just use some opinions right about now

Niacin does nothing to help pass a U/A. Niacin is wrongly credited for passing a U/A when the real hero was the large amounts of water that was consumed with the niacin, which effectively diluted the THCA concentration in the bladder to where the urine sample registered a negative on the drug screen. These people wouldve passed anyway just on the water alone and without the niacin to go with it.

Aside from niacin having no effect on ridding the body of THC, taking considerably more niacin than the 15 mg RDA can have some serious health consequences...

Saunas and sweating are hardly of any help because very little THC is excreted via sweat. You can sweat enough to fill a water tanker, the amount of THC being excreted thru sweat will still be miniscule. The rest is being excreted via the urine and bowels.

If your test does indeed come back negative, this would be the likely reason why:

day off my test i drank a 32 ounce bottle of watter that morning and 4 hours before my test i followed this guy onlines instruction of drinking 65% gatorade and 35% water. ended up being two 32 ounce bottles of orange gatorade and almost a full 32 ounce bottle of water. when i pissed for the UA it was not clear, although it was not a super bright yellow it didn't really seem to look very "diluted"

In other words, youve managed to dilute the THCA concentration in your bladder, to where the sample registered below the cutoff thresholds of the drug screen.

I appreciate the information

i have faith in it because ive had many friends somke the day before a drug test take about 2,000 mg of naicin, flush by getting all read and itchy, and not really consume any more than normal fluids (drinking a soda with meals etc..) and pass their test, again i know i dont know for sure if its the niacin but it does seem like it

so care to share an opinion on wether or not you think i passed? i realize really anything can happen and you can't know for sure. just looking for some educated guesses from people who are more educated then me on the subject

If you dont know for sure but only think it "seems like it so" then how can you have faith or confidence in it?
Niacin does exactly what you said: It makes you red and itchy. To conclude that niacin was the reason for passing the U/A would be a fallacy of causation. Just because B happened doesnt mean that A caused it.
Nothing but a pure coincidence.

Last week I took niacin for a couple of days then tested about 6 times at diff time intervals to do some experiementing.
Made sure to have the tinyest amounts of water so dillution couldnt be a factor.

Niacin made absolutly no differance whats so ever....
