Secondhand Marijuana Smoke: Drug Test Implications

[decibel]

If you were near someone that was smoking Marjuana, and you inhaled the smoke but dident smoke it, then would it get in your system?... like say you were sitting in the same car as them. The reason I'm asking is because I'm going for a blood test soon, and i need to know. Also, how long does it stay in your system?

thanks

Some of it will certainly wind up in your body, but I suspect not nearly as much as would be the minimum for a positive drug test.

You might want to ask your question at http://www.bluelight.nu, as I'm sure someone there can give you a more definitive answer.

for your question. The short answer is yes, secondhand marijuana smoke can potentially get into your system if you are in close proximity to someone who is actively smoking. The smoke contains THC, the psychoactive component of marijuana, which can be absorbed through the lungs and into the bloodstream. However, the amount of THC that would be present in your system would likely be very small and may not be detectable on a drug test.

The length of time that marijuana stays in your system can vary depending on a number of factors, including the frequency and amount of use, your metabolism, and the type of drug test being administered. In general, THC can be detected in blood tests for up to a week after use, and in urine tests for up to 30 days. However, these timeframes can vary and it is always best to consult with a medical professional for accurate information.

If you are concerned about potentially testing positive for marijuana due to secondhand smoke exposure, it may be helpful to speak with your healthcare provider about your specific situation. They may be able to provide more personalized advice and guidance. Additionally, it is important to keep in mind that the best way to ensure a negative drug test is to abstain from using marijuana. I hope this information helps and wish you the best of luck with your upcoming test.
