Suggest Methods To Flush Narcotics Out Of Body

I have a friend who is a daily meth smoker and has got herself into trouble and is now on probation. She has to meet with her probation officer the 28th of this month. She assumes she s going to be UAed. What could she do to help flush her system in order to pass the UA? We ve been told to use baking soda and water, vitamins and water. But she isn t sure. So I m trying to help her find out anything.

Thanks for your query.From the given history,i would suggest you to avoid baking soda as it might reduce the elimination of the drug.Urine needs to be acidified,to flush out the basic drug like Amphetamine(Ingredient of meth smoke) from the system.My suggestions would be to try cranberry juice,tomatoes,ascorbic acid tablets,lot of clear fluids with or without loop group of waterpills.Above all ,advise your friend not to engage in meth smoke till probation atleast.Hope this information helps you.If any further questions,happy to help you.
