Can Second Hand Smoke Affect The Drug Test?

thc drug testing
Im on probation. I relapsed and was given a chance to clean for confessing. I haven't been smoking for 42 days, but live with chronic users. Still failed my drug test. Can second hand smoke affect the drug test?

I'm paranoid now and was wondering if kissing my husband and having his semen in me afeect it too? He smokes everyday. I know the question sounds silly.

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

I understand that you are concerned about your passive inhalation of weed smoke and the upcoming drug test. It is possible second hand smoke can cause a drug test to turn out positive.

The passive smoker also gets significant amounts of drug into his / her system, though the quantity is relatively less. So, there is no guarantee that your drug test will be negative if you have passively inhaled weed smoke. Please ensure that you prevent yourself from such passive smoke exposure in the future to avoid such complications.

However, kissing your husband and having his semen in you will not have any significant effect on the drug test.

Wish you all the best.

Regards,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
