It depends. It's not a precise science, so why try to game the system and take a chance with failing?

The urine EtG (Ethyl Glucuronide) test is sometimes called the "80-hour" test since that is the approximate time-frame it is most valid. But each individual situation varies based on the individual person. What did you drink? (% of alcohol per drink) How much did you drink? And then the wild card -- how fast will your body metabolize that alcohol -- since it can vary widely. If you take a person who has been drinking daily and then has a heavy 'bender', his body may take longer to process that alcohol than someone who was abstinent for weeks prior to drinking the same amount. The heavy drinker has already compromised his liver's ability to detoxify the body. Metabolism also varies based on age, gender and many other factors. In some tests, the EtG has been found to detect alcohol up to 120 hours (5 days) after consumption. On the other hand, if a person only had a small incidental consumption of alcohol (1 or 2 3.2% alcohol beers), the EtG might not detect it at even 48 to 72 hours.

If you are like I was, and drank alcohol despite facing consequences from a monitoring authority that prohibited you from consuming alcohol, that is a RED FLAG that you have a problem with alcohol that you need to address. After I failed such a test, I sought additional treatment and counseling to get my recovery program back on track. I urge you to take an honest look at this and take some action regardless of the outcome of the test. This could have been your "warning shot across the bow". The next time, the next consequence, could be very very different.

Best wishes in your test and your sobriety.
