Accepted Answer

Blood : Blood alcohol concentration (bac) is the most accurate way to determine alcohol levels.  My understanding is that when alcohol is measured through urine it is more to determine the presence or absence of alcohol rather than an exact level.   Most laboratories  have to adhere to rigorous standards with both internal and external monitoring  to be certified.  Reportedly sugar or acetone in urine have the potential to effect a urine alcohol screen.  If you think that this that there was a false positive on your alcohol screen, i suggest you obtain legal advice.

Question 10

if you have drugs metobolizing in your system would it be in the blood or urine last i had a zanax in my system got charged with dwi my blood came back neg so could my urine still be dirty?

Accepted Answer

Xanax (alprazolam) : Xanax (alprazolam) will be detectable in a urinalysis test for up to 3 days.
 A urinalysis test result can be extremely variable based on a persons weight, body mass index, fluid intake and amount of exercise one does.
Also, if you have a prescription for xanax (alprazolam) is will be important to bring this information forward during your case. Best of luck.
