Blood Drug Testing

Would a person who passed an at home drug test pass a meps test?

It's been 46 days since me and my brother last smoked. We have stepped up our game and have been excercising untill we drip sweat, we take niacin, and only drink water, should we be clean for the meps drug test? This is our first time going.

1. Hard to say -I've heard meps drug test can pick up anything for a 90 day period.
2. You only get one shot at this. I believe that admission of drug use is an immediate disqualifier from the military, or at least it was back in my days. While you're probably ok, you'd better do some serious soul searching on this one. Can you stay clean indefinitely, not just fake it? Are you willing to risk a dishonorable discharge on your employment history on whether or not you can stop smoking? Think long and hard, and if your answer is that you really are willing to give up the weed, and that you firmly believe you can, then head to MEPS. You're likely to pass at this point, since the metabolites usually stay in your system for no more than 30 days or so.
3. The first problem is that it isn't so much how long ago you smoked... it is how much and how often you smoked prior to then. THC, the chemical in marijuana stays in the fatty tissues of the body for a long time. If this was a one-time thing, then you should be okay, but if you were a regular smoker then you might get a surprise. Second, the drug test performed at MEPS is a very defined drug test, and is capable of finding single parts per million in your urine. The average home test is capable of finding the same drugs, but can't differentiate amounts less then hundreds per million. They use mass spectrum testing, which is scary accurate. Stay away from the pot. Continue to get healthy and best of luck to you both. You should be okay, but do yourself a favor and if you are joining the military, stay away from the drugs and stay away from those who do them. It will just cause a bad day for you in the end.
4. it's a "Maybe" Take a few other brand of over-the-counter drug tests To be safe, wait another month
5. You should be perfectly fine! just dontsmoke 1 week before you leave and try and drink cranberry juice. When people say that it picks up anything from 90 days they are wronge!! its a normal drug test u take at home so dont worry and good luck
6. 46 days sounds very good and if you pass a home test you be good to go btw if you home test your self the best is to check the first morning pee , urine have the highest concentration and result will be real.
