    Nyquil and mouthwash both contain alcohol, as do other medications like cough syrup.

    I use nyquil and mouthwash. I used about 60 ml a day of nyquil for a week leading up to my EtG test. My probation officer said if it was from nyquil she could tell by the numbers. Do you know what the certain numbers that nyquil and or mouthwash could cause?

    Both are well known to cause this, And no, the numbers can vary by usage. It appears the PO believed you, so time to stop using that mouthwash, find a natural other option, and stop using cough medication all the time

    Well she said she'd let me know Sunday if I was telling the truth because she'd be able to tell by the numbers if it was the nyquil. And she'd be pissed if I was lying.. but I haven't drank.. I got caught for use of marijuana. If she thought I was lying what wld happen. This is the only time I've been in trouble and I currently have the 7411.
