A member asked:
I have to take a peth blood alcohol test for court, will have been totally clean for the prior 16 days beforehand, will my peth levels have dropped?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PEth: PEth is a mid- to long-term biomarker measurable after consumption of approximately 200 grams of alcohol. An individual consuming 1 drink per day for 6-7 days will produce a positive result. PEth can be measured for 2-3 weeks following the most recent alcohol consumption.
