    I had a urine test today for alcohol and I need to know something
    Hello,

    Today I was drinking around like 8:40ish in the morning (Vodka,and some other stuff but I mixed it with A lot of orange juice)

    Than I got a urine test at 12-1ish in the after noon
    I drank tons of water
    And had something to eat

    I am wondering if this test will come back positive or not
    When I had to do the test I didn't have to urinate but like 10 minutes later I had to
    I believe when I had to go that was some of the alcohol

    All I'm wondering is, is that do you think this test will come back positive

    Yes of course it will come back positive, but failure will depend on the guidline they allowed for the limits.

    I herd though that it takes 1 hour to get ride of 1 beer
    And I went to the bathroom like 2-3 times before so
    I guess it just didn't reach in time
    And what do you mean by guidline they allow for the limits?
    This is my first test and I really know nothing about this stuff :eek:

    It takes 24 hours for alcohol to be completely out of your system

    Yes it will come back positive... Why were you drinking on a day when you needed to pass an alcohol test anyway? And why so early in the morning? :confused:

    You have some common misconceptions about alcohol and your body. You need to understand what really happens to your body's metabolism and absorption when you drink.

    There are a lot of factors involved here. It doesn't necessarily take 24 hours to rid your body of alcohol. It just depends on how much you drank that morning, how often you drink, how much you weigh, etc. etc.

    Good luck with the outcome of that UA though!

    Ahealthy liver usually metabolizes about an ounce of ETOH an hour. However, they can do a test (ETG) that detects ETOH (alcohol) for up to 80 hours post ingestion
