I weigh 100 pounds and consumed 2 glasses of champaign. I have a UA coming approximatly 44 hours after finishing second glass. I almost never drink. I am wondering if my weight and amount consumed will effect the detox time? Basically should I worry about this UA?

These factors and many more influence elimination time. If this is a standard UA, testing for the presence of alcohol in urine, you are completely safe. Elimination time would be in the 4-6 hour range. If the urinalysis is screening for the alcohol metabolites EtG/EtS it's possible that there could be low level presence. Not likely but possible.
