A friend of mine asked me if a clean urine test if a saliva test would be clean as well. He is an occasionally marijuana smoker and took an at home urine drug test and it came back negative. He has a pre employment drug test on Tuesday and isn't sure if it will be a urine test or a saliva test. If urine is clean, will saliva be clean as well? If not, is there anything you can do or anyway to test it beforehand? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Cannabinoids (marijuana, hashish - TEST SPECIFICALLY SCREENS FOR METABOLITE THCCOOH

NOTE 1: Oral fluid or saliva testing results for the most part mimic that of blood. The only exception is THC. Oral fluid will likely detect THC from ingestion up to a maximum period of 18-24 hours



NOTE 2: Urine can not detect current drug use. It takes approximately 6–8 hrs. or more post-consumption for drug to be metabolized and excreted in urine. Similarly, hair requires two weeks, and sweat, seven days


The approximate values for detection periods for Cannabis:

For urine -Single use .- 14 days
Chronic Use: Up to 30 days, sometime longer


For Hair- up to 90 days

For Blood or Saliva is - 2 days

So based, on the above; the answer is yes. I thought you might be interested in the above trivia for his and your own info.. However, pls warn him that habitual use of this drug enatils more bad than good benefits.
