Drug blood test

Do you know which drugs are checked by a drug blood test? Of course I don't take drugs but I would like to know whether alcohol can be found. How long can you prove that I drunk alcohol? Can a blood test prove that I smoked shisha?

 

The standard way to screen for drugs of abuse is that of a urine drug screen. It really depends on the drug in question, as some drugs can kick around for up to 30 days if you use them on a daily basis ( for example marijuana and Valium).

 

Most opioids stick around typically 2-3 days.

 

Using a blood test is not an optimal way to perform drug screening, as drugs are metabolized rapidly.

Sorry I don't really know the exact answers to your question, but concerning shisha, it's tobacco, not an illegal drug, and I don't think that there's a way to know that you smoked tobacco .

 

Sure there is: http://labtestsonline.org/understanding/analytes/nicotine/tab/sample Insurance companies use it to check if you really are a non-smoker.

 

 

Not sure what all this has to do with primary residencies :confused:
