A member asked:
If i am surrounded by secondhand smoke on a daily basis, will nicotine and cotinine show up in a cotinine urinalysis test?

Yes: Exposure to second hand smoke carries the same risk as smoking if you are exposed throughout the day. Perhaps you need to find a better daytime environment.

Quite possibly: Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) can lead to positive cotinine testing.
