A member asked:

Can i pass a ethyl glucuronide test in under five days after drinking?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: The test is considered scientifically unsupportable by most agencies, since it's very easy to get false positives. It is usually strongly positive only for a new hours in bodily fluids, but can persist for much longer in hair or nails.
