If I drank 1 beer at 1:00 pm on a Saturday, and then drank three more at 9:00 pm on Saturday night, what are the chances that it will show up on an ETG test? Please I need to know. Let me know at [email protected]

EtG production during alcohol metabolism varies widely between individuals. Based on the quantity consumed EtG will probably be above the detection level of 100 ng for 30-60 hours from the time of your last drink.

How high can an EtG test result be for one ounce of alcohol consumed within 18 hrs in a 200 lb male if proper diet and excersize have been adhered to for a substantial period and no other alcohol has been consumed for weeks prior to this one instance?

I need a little clarification. One ounce is 2/3 of a standard drink (US) or about 0.4 oz of pure ethanol. One standard drink is 0.6 pure ethanol.

Given your description, it is unlikely that an EtG would be above the level of dectection at 18 hours even at 100 ng cutoff.

Hope that answers your question, if not, provide a little more info and I will be happy to clarify.

Dr BIll, wed night I had a beer, 3 chocolate martinis, and 1 glass of wine. Fri at 11a I had a bailys and coffee. Sat morning I woke up and drank a detox drink(kambucha), 3 bottles of water, 30oz of all nautral cranberry juice, 1 vitamin water. I had to take a EtG test at 11am. Please help me. I need to know if I am going to fail. I weigh 110lbs. 26yr old female who works out regularyl. Thanks for everything...

Omg thanks for responding! I am freaking out. Can you call me? 402-517-8188? If not... this may help
1. The chocolate martinis were made at pf changs restaurant here in town and probably had 1-2oz vodka I would assume in them.
2. The time on Wed was 730pm the first beer was consumed... then I had 3 martinis from 9pm to 12a... then had maybe a half a glass of reisling before 2am.
3. One ounce of bailys
4. I just got home from the EtG test that was concucted at 11am today.
I drank a lot of fluids starting at 730 am this morning but I am not sure if that would have effected my urain because it took me from 730am to 1030 am to even drink all of the beverages.
Thank you again so much... I REALLY appreciate it. And again if I could talk to you I will pay you!
