After drinking 3 beers within 24 hours of an EtG test you should expect to test positive.

Most programs using EtG tests require a contract that you signed or acknowledged. Such contracts contain a clause about the use of OTC medications containing alcohol and the use of same constitutes a violation same as drinking.

In addition, the NyQuil claim is much overused. Your best hope is for a false negative on the test.

NOTICE: Any person or entity that is subjected to or relies on EtG testing should read this Advisory issued by the US Department of Health and Human Services, September 2006 (http://kap.samhsa.gov/products/manuals/advisory/pdfs/0609_biomarkers.pdf)and remains in effect as of date of this posting.

After drinking 3 beers, will I test positive on a EtG test 48 hours later?
