My sister just got a really good job but she smokes marijuana... Is there anyway for her to pass a urine test without buying detox stuff? Is there any NATURAL/HOME remedy that REALLY works? I do not want to hear that drugs are bad because I am trying to help her out. Please give me some accurate answers.. Appreciate it :)

No there is no way if they have random drug testing or testing if there has been an accident. She has a choice to make.

I don't think that any respectable member here will assist you in cheating on a drug test. And by the way, you cannot dictate WHAT kind of answers you get here.

Good for you on trying to help your sister.

There are two factors that may assist your sister. First, most employers are doing in-house testing and those administering the test don't know a molecule from a mouse trap. Therefore false positives and negatives abound. It's possible she might benefit from this lack of standardization and training.

The second factor is the elusive properties of THC. The more we learn of it the more befuddling it becomes. The general rule is that THC-COOH accumulates and may be present for 30 days in those that smoke regularly. However, overall there is no way to estimate the clearance time of THC in a particular case and it is equally well known that elimination varies amongst individuals by as much as 3-4 fold. Furthermore, it is possible to test clean one day and positive the next. She could benefit from either of these factors.

While I happen to disagree with this type of test. (Any type of test except "for cause") I don't know of a fail-safe method to defeat such a test and would be legally and professionally restrained from providing such advice if I did. Ironically, marijuana remains the most likely substance to be detected while the synthetic opiates fail to register.

I hope things work out for your sister in this matter and in the future.
