Does anyone know if alcohol shows up on drug tests?

FYI The type of test is the kind where you pee in a cup and they put a certain type of stick or something in there to test it.

ive never heard of it, i think cept for the magical wonder plant there arnt many drugs that show up in your system after a week or so... i could be wrong tho...

[JimmyDean]

depends, there are some drug tests that test for alchohol also. ours at our school for football do, but alchohal only lasts 2 days in your system so its not a big worry. the main thing the tests check for are bud(weed, pot, what ever), oxy cotton, opiates(sp?) crack, and a few other perscription medicens. i knwo i missed spelled alot of stuff on here, sorry. but hope i helped.

I don't think too many places care if you have had a beer

It can but the detection period is only about 2 days and much less if you did not drink a lot. Most other drugs will be gone within a week with the exception of marijuana and pcp. Marijuana can be detected, on average, up to 40 days after use and pcp up to 2 weeks after use. If you habitually use any drug it will increase the time it takes to get rid of it. I'm pretty sure that if you ever do LSD (acid) you never completely get it out your system due to the fact that it stays in your brain forever, which is why some people have flashbacks. In urine however it is only detectable up to about two days after use. I looked it up and couldn't find a definate answer, although many websites said it is just a myth I would believe a doctor over a website.

Watch out for poppy seeds if you are taking drug tests. Sometimes comes up as a positive if you eat them.

They can come up as an opiate but only if you eat an incredible amount.

I think when you do the piss test for the military they test for alcohol also. But its been a while.

[PyRo]

Military don't let you drink?

[Restola]

Apparently they dont want you drunk when you go in for your entrance physical (meps?).

Not sure why.

Heres a stupid question, but if I ate like a pound of poppy seeds would I feel anything other than a pound of poppy seeds in my stomach?

[breg]

I don't thik that the military tests for booze in pee test. If they did, I would have been in a lot of trouble.

Actually, Mythbusters did this one, and it wasn't really an incredible amount - they were testing positive for opiates after only a few poppyseed bagels.
