I had a few drinks ( two beers and a couple gulps of jÃ¤ger ) late Tuesday night. I have to take a drug test around 10am on Friday. I know the facility sends the urine samples to a lab to be tested. What are te chances that the alcohol will show up on this test?

What is a gulp? A shot or more? As I'm reading this there is about 58 hours from last drink until test?

The Jäger you mention is 100 proof?

Every time I took a drink out of te jÃ¤ger bottle it was probably half a shot. I estimate a total of 3 shots and 3 beers. The jÃ¤ger is 70 proof. 58 hours is about right. Would it make a big difference if I prolonged my drug test to later in te afternoon on Friday? Maybe gave myself an Extra 3 or 4 hours? Also is there anything I can do or take to possibly help the alcohol get out of my system faster?

Now you are up to six standard drinks (US). Averaging BAC at last drink and elimination that leaves about 50 for clearance of EtG. That is very close call.

Time is the most influential factor. I am not familiar with any product or method to reduce EtG. As you have probably read, anyone taking an EtG test, even totally abstinent, are well advised to stay hydrated. Even a small amount of alcohol such as incidental exposure is magnified by as much as 20X by concentrated urine.

All of the foregoing is based on the assumption that the test is for EtG/EtS, metabolites of alcohol. If the test is simply for alcohol (EtOH) then you are entirely clear after about 8 hours from last drink (12 at most).
