Wer unter Drogentest-Verdacht steht, hat kaum legale Auswege. Wir erklären Testarten, Risiken von Manipulationsversuchen und warum Verzicht die einzige sichere Option ist.
If you're suspected of having used a banned substance and a drug test is meant to prove it, you're in a real bind. Getting around a drug test is barely possible, and quite apart from that, depending on where you live it can be illegal and penalised accordingly. If a hair analysis is looming, only one thing really helps: cut the hair off and push the test back as far as you can. Sure, you can treat your hair with strong hair cleansers. But the chemical components of highly concentrated shampoos are usually picked up in a hair test, which then brings unpleasant consequences, quite apart from the chemical stress you put on your hair and scalp.
Manipulating urine and blood tests isn't quite so far-fetched, since drinking plenty, sauna sessions and exercise really can influence your blood values. Even so, a high fluid intake is no 100% guarantee that every metabolite is flushed out of the body. Blood-cleansing or detoxifying teas and juices don't guarantee a negative result either, though they're said to be the most effective. Anyone who overdoes the result-doctoring, however, and pours down water and fruit juices to excess before the test risks two things: if the urine is too watery, the test has to be repeated. And if you drink too much water in too short a time, your salt balance is thrown off, which in the mildest case causes muscle cramps; in the worst case, sodium deficiency leads to a rise in intracranial pressure and to loss of consciousness.
Medications and chemical substances, on the other hand, are something you should absolutely steer clear of. First, foreign substances can be detected in both blood and urine tests, and second, this route is harmful to your health. It's popular, for instance, to try to falsify a drug test with vitamin B supplements. They're easy to get at any pharmacy and seem completely harmless in small amounts, yet an overdose can result in skin conditions, liver damage and cardiac arrhythmia.
What has supposedly helped some people is handing in fake urine ( synthetic urine ). But it's very naive and risky to try to beat a drug test this way. After all, the urine has to be fresh, meaning still warm, and you're usually watched while you go, so cheating gets very difficult. So you can forget about lastingly doctoring your urine with eye drops (which are supposed to neutralise THC) or other substances too. With a swab test, on the other hand, the success rate seems fairly high when using the Kleaner spray , provided you apply it to the right body part, the one the swab is then taken from.
If you're called in for a drug test and have been a regular user, there's normally no getting out of it. The only possible solution in that case: stop using and postpone the test as far as you can, but only if you have a good reason to delay it (illness, a job interview). Otherwise, depending on your country, the authorities may be entitled to count the test as positive and, for example, to revoke your driving licence.
