Will you get drug tested if you're on probation for a theft charge?

Asked Jun 15, 2010, 07:33 PM — 3 Answers
I have a probation meeting on the 1st of July. Will I be tested for a non-drug related charge?

If so, what are some quick and easy ways to get it out of your system? I've heard about drinking a lot of water and cranberry juice helps. Any suggestions?

Expect to be drug tested regardless of what your charge/crime is/was. That's all a part of being on probation. And as far as getting the evidence out of your system in a hurry, sorry, we don't give that kind of advice here. Maybe elsewhere can help you on that.

It is very common to be tested for drugs on any probation, for non drug convictions, it may not be every time, but it will be done randomly.

And yes, you "heard" a lot, but none of it is true, only time will clean your system.

I work with Dept of Corrections clients and clients involved in the Child Protective System. Drug tests are difficult to cheat unless they are unsupervised while providing urine specimens. They also orally swab for alcohol. The tests have dilute detectors as well. People that think they are cheating the tests by drinking large amounts of water or taking those flush solutions sold at gas stations are misinformed. Here is a helpful suggestion to making sure you are clean at your next UA.....STOP USING DRUGS.
