    Has anyone passed an EtG test after drinking one drink 65 prior?
    No one ever seems to come back after they have tested to say if they passed or failed! It would be so helpful!
    Thanks!

    There is quite a lot of research in relation to EtG clearance time following low-level alcohol intake (1-4 drinks). Following one drink EtG is detectable only for about 18 hrs (ave) in a range of 0-20.6 hrs. (1) There has never been an example of 1 drink being detectable any where near 65 hours.

    1) Dr. Skipper Ethylgluronide website/blog See also Wojcik & Hawthorne as well as Helander, 2008 that contains a chart for elimination times for various amounts of alcohol. p. 59, Table 1.
