This will be the first installment of a Q&A series we hope will shed some light on the Drug and Alcohol collection buisness as well as address many of the questions that we commonly hear every day.
Question: " Last night I had a glass of wine. Will I fail today's alcohol test?"
Answer: Thanks for asking. I personally get asked this question at least twice a day and if all you had to drink the night before was one glass of wine, the answer is no. Simply put, there is nothing illegal about having a drink or two on your own time provided that you do so safely and responsibly. What we are testing for is if the donor (that being you) are intoxicated in any way at the time of testing. Everybody metabolizes alcohol at a different rate but as a general rule, alcohol works it's way out of your system in approximately 8-12 hours. The best advice that I could give you is if you know you are going for an alcohol test tommorrow, don't go out for drinks tonight. That way, you will have the piece of mind knowing that you do not have ANY alcohol in your system at all.
I hope that this helps.
