If you want to check, you can order cannabis test kits (that's just the first of a hillion jillion links) for super cheap. You've likely got another day or two before it's out of your system, so if you want to try to confirm, order a kit with next-day delivery and give it a go.

u/fryreportingforduty · 12 pointsr/AskTrollX

Didn’t find a bottle, but I found the strips on Amazon for cheap! You should be able to secure it to any bottle just fine.

I’ll just stress this again since I’m here: spend more time preparing for the temperature than worrying about whether the urine will pass or not. Most often, when people fail drug tests with fake or someone else’s urine, it’s because they didn’t get the temperature right.

Good luck!

Edit: One more thing, if you use a hand warmer, make sure it’s strapped to the opposite side of the bottle of the temperature strip for an accurate reading.

Buy some home tests. This is the only way you'll know for sure.

http://www.amazon.com/Response-Parameter-Urinalysis-Reagent-Strips/dp/B001EUAXZM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334583090&sr=8-1

Those will test normal urine parameters, I think pH and Specific gravity are the only ones that the NIDA 5 pre employment test strip cups look for (i could be wrong, it's been a while).

http://www.amazon.com/Drug-Test-Marijuana-Urine-Strips/dp/B001YYTDLS/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1334583254&sr=1-1

These will test you for THC.

Just spend the 20 dollars try the method to offer yourself peace of mind.

u/Tentra · 4 pointsr/eldertrees

I bought some THC test strips on Amazon earlier in the year for $5 for 10 strips, they worked as they should and came with a really informative brochure detailing the list of chemicals and metabolites it tested for along with concentration limits. link to product

u/Antije · 4 pointsr/entwives

This except you can save a bunch by buying strips from here in bulk then you can test every week/every other week.

u/lps2 · 3 pointsr/AdviceAnimals

Also, take a B-vitamin and take it an hour or two before the test, it will help add the color back to your pee

Source : recently had to take a drug test, am a heavy marijuana smoker, and tested myself 3 times a day the week leading up to the test - Amazon has the marijuana urine tests fairly cheap

u/elisha_gunhaus · 3 pointsr/Interstitialcystitis

I have struggled a lot with this. It got to the point where I thought I could definitely tell the difference between a UTI and a flare, but I would go to the doc for a urinalysis just to be told that there was no sign of infection.

This product saved me many a time. Super cheap and way cheaper than what I thought was the only similar product on the market.

u/ganjanosh · 3 pointsr/trees

17 days is not enough time for a daily smoker.

Test yourself
Be ready to sub

Dilution does not work don't waste your time. You should be good in 4 weeks but know and be ready to substitute. Quick fix has worked 3 times for me and twice for my wife.

u/Zephyrlot · 2 pointsr/microbiology

You can get commercial urinalysis dipsticks online for decently cheap. something like these ought to do it. As far as microscopy, the only real thing that a microscopic examination is good for, IMO, is quantifying red or white blood cells, crystals, and any renal cells that may have been shedded in extreme cases, so if your kidneys are fine and your urine looks normal (cloudiness can happen normally after a big meal) the urinalysis alone should be enough.

u/Not_In_Our_Stars · 2 pointsr/tea

So sorry I can't find anything very similar. That backstamp seems to be a bit rare as far as the teacups go. If you were to sell it I wouldn't take less than $25-30 but probably you want to keep it :P. I highly doubt there are significant amounts of lead in it but if you are so inclined you can get testing kits for cheap.

u/Joey-T99 · 2 pointsr/CBD

Ignore my post. I just reread your question, and it is about hair tests, not urine tests.
From what I have read, hair tests are much more sensitive. I believe THC can be detected in hairs for up to 90 days.


--------------------------------------------------------


As mentioned before, buy a THC Urine Test kit.

I purchased a 50ng and 20ng test kit on Amazon, out of curiosity. I am retired and don't need to pass a drug test.

Here are links to what I bought. There may be better deals/products, so look around.
https://www.amazon.com/Instant-Single-Panel-Drug-Test/dp/B004C39D68/ref=sr_1_1?s=industrial&ie=UTF8&qid=1505243281&sr=1-1&keywords=Instant+Single+Panel+Drug+Test+Kit+-+Test+for+Marijuana+%28THC%29+-+15+pk


https://www.amazon.com/%C3%9CTest-Sensitive-Marijuana-Detection-Customer/dp/B00CUCDYJU/ref=sr_1_1?s=industrial&ie=UTF8&qid=1505243355&sr=1-1&keywords=%C3%9CTest%3A+MOST+Sensitive+Instant+THC+20+ng%2FmL+Marijuana+Single+Panel+Home+Drug+Test+%282+pack%29+LOW+Detection+Level+-+Customer+Service+Included

I have been vaping four different vape pens with the following CBD/THC content.
1:1, 3:1, 4:1, and 10:1

These vape pens have a lot more THC than a Hemp CBD product, which I believe has no more than 0.3% THC (almost nothing).
But some folks have reported failing a drug test using the Hemp CBD. So you need to be concerned.

For about 30 days I was smoking these different vape products about every other day. On the days I would vape, I would vape about 2 to 3 times a day.

I then tried the 50ng urine test, which I failed.
I then stopped vaping for about 7 days and tried the test again.
This time I passed.
I waited a few days more, and tried the 20ng, which I also passed.

So, IMO, if you don't vape for 7 days or more, you should likely pass a 50ng test, and maybe a 20ng test.
But you need to test yourself to be sure.

u/luyc · 2 pointsr/tea

I think the only way to find out for sure is to get a lead testing kit.

u/Raijodin · 2 pointsr/trees

Depending on your body weight/usage you might be able to piss clean after two weeks of abstinence. "Accepted" THC retention times are a bit longer than actual times (very very few people test positive a month after a single session). After 2 bowls, I myself test clean in 3 days (learned this for randoms I had to take).

LegalizeThatShit gives sound advice - I'd just add that you can buy an over-the-counter test (or NIST strips off the internet) and test yourself before hand for your own sanity.

5 Pack Identify Diagnostics 6 Panel Drug Test Dip - Testing Instantly for 6 Different Drugs THC, COC, MOP, OXY, MET, BZO ID-CP6-DIP (5) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072LY7868/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_L6qjDbZS0DH1D

They have a whole bunch of different 5 panels if this doesn’t have the drugs you’re looking for


Edit to add: I’m not sure if your Q is on any actual prescriptions, but this test does make my Q test hot for meth and he’s prescribed adderall. He only had issues with heroin though, so I wasn’t worried about it.

u/LurkingGrue · 2 pointsr/saplings

Tolerance depends on how frequently you smoke, how much you smoke, and how long you've been smoking. It also depends on your weight and how much fat you have (THC is fat soluble).

I'm cutting back from a bowl a day right now. A bowl-a-day habit will build up tolerance rather quickly.

My recommendation: cut off weed. Taper your consumption if necessary. After 2-3 weeks or so, [drug test](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001YYTDLS/sr=1-2/qid=1309915911/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&qid=1309915911&sr=1-2&seller= "You can also get the strips at your local pharmacy.") yourself. If you fail, keep testing every so often.

Once you're clean, your tolerance should be back down to the point where a small bowl is adequate.

u/Arndmwhitedude · 2 pointsr/drugtesthelp

Also temp matters if you haven’t read already. 90-100ish is what they’re looking for.

These help wonders:

u/knullcon · 2 pointsr/WTF

10 strips for 6 bucks and free shipping for 6 dollars you get 10 drug tests, for 1 dollar plus tax you get 1. What is the shock here? that they sell them in stores?

u/[deleted] · 1 pointr/baduk

I have this set. You'll be pleased with it.

I would suggest that you also buy this or equivalent with it.

Some batches of yunzi stones have surface lead - mine did when I tested them. This is not limited to YMI, and the production of yunzi requires some lead for strength. This test makes sure that the stones are not flaking and letting that lead out into your environment.

I'd also suggest washing your hands after playing with yunzi stones.

Edit:

Here's an AGA E-Journal Article from 2014 about lead in yunzi (specifically in YMI yunzi stones), and here is the post on Life in 19x19 that they cite as the source.

u/SumFuckah · 1 pointr/AskDocs

When I had strep throat, I was finding it troublesome to eat any food (it hurt so bad to swallow) and mostly felt like a REALLY bad sore throat. I contracted it at a public pool. I'm not sure if this is strep throat, but you should see a doctor and get tested for strep throat. IF you don't have access to a doctor - i'm not sure how reliable this is - try an at home strep throat test kit.

Hope you feel better soon!

u/Blais_Of_Glory · 1 pointr/askdrugs

If you want to test the substance, you want to buy a reagent test. If you look at Pill testing and scroll down to the section for "Tests available" it tells you what type of reagent tests are available. Marquis reagent is the most common but isn't for opiates. You might want to try a Mecke reagent or Mandelin reagent. (If you click on the links it will show you what drugs each test checks for.) You could also try to buy a 14 or more panel urine drug test (I found this 14-panel urine test on Amazon) and mix some of the powder with your own urine but there might not be enough powder to test positive and most drug tests only test for a few drugs.

If you suspect you know who the pills belong to, you could just drug test that person, as that would be easier than testing the powder. If you're going to do that, make sure you don't give the person any warning or notice beforehand because if they are using drugs, they know how to pass a drug test. I would suggest using a saliva test or hair test because urine tests are the easiest to fake and make sure it's at least a 12-panel test (the number of panels means how many drugs it tests for, the higher the number, the more drugs it tests for.)

The fact that you're in the Middle East is what concerns me the most. I'm a recovering heroin addict and many of the addicts I met were either military veterans or worked for a military/DoD company in the Middle East, where they said it was very easy and cheap to get heroin and they would often smuggle it back home somehow.

Again, I'm not saying it's definitely heroin. I said it looks like it could be heroin but it could be anything. It could be supplements like some said, but we online have no idea. There are many drugs that look like brown or tan powder. The powder could be anything and most substances can't be tested for.

u/anon12341234 · 1 pointr/askdrugs

woah woah woah, bad news bear going on right here.

If you have ever taken Benzo's with alcohol (example a few xanax with a heap of alcohol) you know you will BLACK THE FUCK OUT and completely fail to remember ANYTHING for a few hours as well as the possibility of falling into a very heavy sleep.

In a worst case situation I would say this person is trying to incapacitate you in order to take advantage of you, whether it be sexually or not.

IDEALLY you could buy an EZ-TEST kit to test for benzo's, like here http://www.eztestkits.com/en/ but there doesn't seem to be one for benzo's. Maybe a urine drug test like this would work? who knows http://www.amazon.com/Benzodiazepine-cassette-Halcion-Librium-Rohypnol/dp/B005K01VVW

Please be safe and never trust this person

u/athomesuperstar · 1 pointr/diabetes_t1

Use these to test your drink before chugging. It's a technique that my first endo taught me way back when.

u/Treedit · 1 pointr/eldertrees

Amazon has them in packs of 10-15. I strongly advise doing it this way and testing every 2-3 days and plotting your results. This way in the future you'll have an idea of how long it takes to clear your system (since this varies from person to person)

Some people could test clean in as little as a week. Personally it took me about 3 weeks to get consistently clean after smoking 2-4 times a day for 3 months. For reference I'm in my mid 20's with low body fat.

The exact tests I used

u/cloudcity · 1 pointr/dataisbeautiful

Dude/Dudettee. Let me change your life.

I'm in same boat as you - Strep three times a year. Doctor started not even testing me, as I can taste it.

But, this test will save you $$$:

I've also read that fish antibiotics are the exact same thing we take as humans, and can be purchased online. I haven't gone that far yet.

exact same test strips, just not in fancy packaging like that one, 15 for $10, used em for a while and they work quite well

u/spooniemclovin · 1 pointr/Marijuana

You will be fine. I have done tests to see what my rates are for becoming cleaning using these: Science Purchase Instant Single Panel Drug Test Kit - Test for Marijuana (THC) - 15 pk https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004C39D68/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_lCs.wbC76GY3B

3 days is usually what I was finding if I was previously clean.

u/KansasEnt · 1 pointr/leaves

Actually it isn't that expensive. I keep a set of drug tests at home for just this reason. (To be honest, I haven't used them lately, but when I do take a T-Break, I want to see that passed drug test.)

u/starstough · 1 pointr/Hypothyroidism

....I started up on nicotine again.... :( :( :( And was fine within a day, too, which is so incredibly frustrating.

My insurance doesn't cover the 24 hr saliva test, and it is a bit expensive, so I need to purchase it on my own and send the results to my doctor.

In the meantime I just have to function. Nicotine increases cortisol, so I will just keep vaping like an idiot. At least it isn't cigarettes I guess...

FWIW, here's a couple links to the tests my doctor recommended.

This one tests just cortisol.

This one tests 5 other hormones

I'm not really sure I'd trust this one but its a full thyroid panel! Crazy!

My doctor specifically told me to get this brand. She's not a naturopath or anything...So I guess its an okay brand.

u/TaylorSwift2015 · 1 pointr/trees

If you really want to be sure, drop $5 for a THC testing kit as well. That way, you can pre-test yourself before the actual test (see https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cannabis-Marijuana-Single-Drug-Test/dp/B003IJF1VI ).

u/LeglessLegolas_ · 1 pointr/NoStupidQuestions

If you could tell by looking at it or smelling it, it would be a pretty shitty date rape drug.

You can buy these test strips if you're that paranoid. But other than that, just never leave your drink unattended.

u/CatLover99 · 1 pointr/DarkNetMarkets

The only thing I can think of at the moment is a 12 panel at home drug test that you could perform after ingesting it.

http://www.amazon.com/Devon-Medical-Panel-Urine-Instant/dp/B001DL936W

http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/at-home-drug-test,-12-panel/ID=prod4021948-product

But I'm not sure if eitzo would create a false positive for alp but given that etizo is actually a thienodiazepine and not a benzothiophene I don't think it will test positive.

Post #4 in this thread claims that it will not trigger a false positive, so this might be a useful way to know that what you received is at least a benzo.

u/Envy_This · 1 pointr/trees

How would you know how many ng/ml it tests for? Would it be listed on the package? I ordered a bunch of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001DL8PTI/ref=ox_ya_os_product_refresh_T1


You know what these test?

I've ordered some ketostix, but with this, I dip (briefly) and I get almost no response.

u/audreyality · -2 pointsr/keto

You can see if you're running on ketones with these strips called Ketostix. You can find them in drug stores too.
