Question 1

how long does thc stay in your saliva?

Accepted Answer

THC: All of the cannabinoids have a very long half-life in the body.  In the case of thc in saliva, i would expect that it would be detectable for up to 30 days or longer since the last dose.

Question 2

will thc get into your saliva if you eat edibles?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it will: Thc will get into your saliva whether you eat it or smoke it. It is best to avoid altogether unless prescribed for medical reasons. Of course there are also legal considerations. Psychiatrically you should not use pot if you have ever had a psychotic episode or if anyone in your family has. It can cause depersonalization disorder when used in high doses and in moderate doses can cause social anxiety disorder.

Question 3

is 12 hours the length of time thc can be detected in saliva?

Accepted Answer

No: Thc can be detected in saliva anywhere from 1-10 days, not hours.

Question 4

how long does thc stay in the saliva after using it only once?

Accepted Answer

Less than 24 hrs: Unless someone repeats using the weed within 14-16 hrs it generally becomes undetectable from saliva.

Question 5

is it possible to expose my partner to thc through my saliva or other bodily fluids?

Accepted Answer

Possible: But extremely unlikely to have any clinical effects.  I also would doubt that it could turn a dug test positive.

Question 6

does diet and exercise affect the length of time thc is in your saliva?

Accepted Answer

THC half time: The half times measured for thc vary greatly by a factor of 3 so that it would be difficult to know what affects its length. If you're worried about it showing up, don't use it.

Question 7

can i fail a 1ng thc  saliva test if i kiss someone who smokes marijuanna?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Testing for marijuana use is usually a urine test, kissing someone who smoked weed would not give a positive result.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex. 
Get HPV vaccine

Question 8

how to pass thc saliva drug test?

Accepted Answer

Don't use it.: And don't put yourself into an environment where it is used.

Question 9

will nicotine cause a false positive for thc on a saliva test?

Accepted Answer

No: THC and nicotine are different chemical.

Question 10

a positive saliva test for thc of 26ng/ml and the cutoff was 8ng/ml is that a high level of thc in my system ?

Accepted Answer

Many factors: influence the presence and/or concentration of a drug, or drug by-product, in a specific specimen. Marijuana byproducts are detectable in saliva from 2 to 24 hours after use. While arbitrary, a concentration of &gt;8 ng/ml meets the legal definition of impairment or intoxication in many states, similar to a blood alcohol content &gt;.08%. 26 ng/ml is high legally &amp; most likely physiologically as well.
