Question : Hi, I have a silly question. I currently get 2 random urine analysis a month, Will smoking hookah show up on my results?

Answered by Dr. Olgeta Xhufka (1 hour later)

Brief Answer:
Nicotine appears at urine tests.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

Smoking hookah is not illegal which means it contains tobacco and nicotine as all types of cigarettes not drugs like marihuana or else. If you are getting tested it is possibly for drugs such marihuana or cocaine. No one tests a worker for nicotine or tobacco.
If you get tested for nicotine it can appear in your urine tests for sure.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
