Brief Answer: Unlikely to pass the test... Detailed Answer: Hello again, The average detection time for Cannabis in urine drug screens is 7 to 10 days. Also, the chances of detection are much higher for a regular user than an occasional user. So, unfortunately, in your case, there is a high chance that the urine test could turn out positive. Now, with regards to Cannabis, there is nothing much you can do to avoid detection because the urine test doesn't actually detect Cannabis, but rather detects a 'metabolic product' of Cannabis called THC. This THC takes a very long time to get eliminated. So, even if the actual drug (Cannabis) gets metabolized, still, the metabolite THC will remain in the system. Some people may advocate taking water pills to "clear the drug off the system" but this doesn't work because the drug is metabolized by the liver by a natural process and nothing can be done to speed this up. So, unfortunately, you just have to keep your fingers crossed... Best wishes, Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar Consultant Psychiatrist
