Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

I understand that you are worried whether you would be able to pass a drug test after taking 'meth'. The average detection time for amphetamine-related drugs like meth by urine drug-testing is about three days.

However, this is only an average value. The duration can depend on the frequency, duration and severity of the drug use. The person's body weight doesn't seem to make a significant difference in elimination times.

Regards,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
