PeTH testing

Hi everyone,

If I’m selected for a Peth test 3-4 weeks after I last drank what are my chances of passing? Any feedback is greatly appreciated! TIA

Putting aside the avisabilty of drinking while in one of these programs my reading suggests that a single drinking episode of 1 to 3 drinks is detectable in Peth tests for approximately 12 days. In cases where heavy binge drinking has occured Peth may be present 4 to 5 weeks. Given the differences in individual body Chemistry it's unclear and it depends onhow much you drank.
