    Please answer soon. I drank 10 Coors light bottles Friday night. About mid or 1am I stopped drinking. I took a breathalyzer Mon. morning and passed. And at NOON took the UA.. I don't know the results yet but I am stressing. I drank several glasses of water and Ice tea over the weekend and drank a Gatorade, 2 cups of coffee before the ua today.

    You will be fine, the only way you won't pass is if there is a hair folicle test which can read up to 3 months if you have been drinking. Each beer only takes an hour to get out of your system anyway.

    And you know this how? For an ETG test it takes approximately 60 hours or more to leave the urinary system.

    It will be close but you will probably pass.

    Really now... so you are very knowledgeable in this, are you? So you're saying that the EtG will only last one hour per beer? Sorry, that's not how it works.

    The general rule of thumb is that the effect of alcohol wears off at an hour per drink... this is entirely different than EtG. The urine test is not checking to see if you are still drunk, it is test for EtG in your blood or urine to see if you have been drinking. EtG does not dissipate at the rate of 1 drink per hour. It will stay in your system for days.

    Before you answer things like this, you should be sure that you not only understand the question but you need to understand the answer as well. Do not just answer with whatever you think is good.

    I PASSED!! :)))) Just to update everyone. Also I believe My last dink was 56-60 hours from my test. So I believe the ETG is Definitely over rated. I have a VERY SLOW metabolism. I am over weight by at least 35 lbs. I am a stay at home Mom so My only exercise is taking my kids for short walks etc.
