I drank at 12am on a Monday night, 3 shots then 3 beers over 4 hours. So I stopped drinking at about 3am. I am female, 95 lbs, 5'1", and took an ETG Wednesday at 4pm. I drank a 24 oz. smoothie with antioxidants the night before and drank a half gallon of water. What are my chances?

It was 3am Tues morning when you stopped drinking? About 37 hours from last drink until test?

Also do you know cutoff for the test?

Yes 37 hours about and cutoff I think is 72 hours. I have a very good metabolism as well.

The EtG created from 6 drinks will probably require in the range of 45+ hours for clearance. At your size that is 1.95 g/kg of body weight. That is very high. Was trying to think through it. Also get a BAC over .20 at the end of drinking. From that amount of alcohol do you get very intoxicated? How long does it take to sober up? I'm baffled at the figures I'm getting for 6 drinks.

I was a bit tipsy not drunk we played a game at the bar for a bit the three drinks/shots were watered down rum and coke and the beers were 3.2% alcohol by the time I went to bed I wasn't drunk at all just tired

You are an interesting case. Women eliminate alcohol faster than men (on ave) despite the fact that they have less of the metabolizing enzyme and less body area for distribution. Your size when using any standard formula returns figures that just don't add up. Hope you'll let me know the results of your test.

Using the description you provided, mixed drink at bar usually is 1 oz as opposed to 1.5. 3.2 beer (4.1 abv) also makes a difference and your total consumption would be 4.5 SD or 63 g of pure alcohol.

That puts you in the range where you could be EtG clear or below level of detection particularly if the test uses 500 ng cutoff. Too close for me to call.

The fluid intake accelerated EtG clearance and don't know the effect of antioxidants, there has never been a study on that. Couldn't hurt however.
