how long does it take for marijuana to leave your body for a urine screen, it was only one inhalation?

It depends on your bodies metabolism but the safe rule of thumb, and I don't care what anyone says, is at least 30 days, no matter what amount was smoked, no matter how much water you drink. Just because THC is not easily broken down and flushed out of our system by water. Now true some bodies may process it faster, and drinking an @$$load of water may or may not speed the process up, but why take that chance? Go at least 30 days.

28 Days is supposedly what it takes for pot and opium to leave your system.\nHowever if a hair strand test is done, this will take much longer, I am proof....I quit 6 weeks ago, and just failed....\nHave a great one, don't even do it!

It depends on how frequent a smoker you are.  It could be a few days to a month or longer.  THC lingers in your fat cells, so it also depends on your body composition.  I'd say,  start drinking water hours before a test, and make sure you pee 4 -5 times before you go in.  As long as your urine is clear (not yellow)during the test, you should not pop on the test if you're only a social smoker.  I've seen people pass many times with the "water technique" when they had smoked the weekend earlier.  (Of course they only smoke 1-2 times per month.)

The good news is that with only smoking so little it will clear out of your system rather quickly. Lots of fluids is definetly your best bet. It is untrue that pot stays in your system for 30 days. You would have to be a habitual smoker for that to actually occur. Good Luck!!

The fact of the matter is that although there are a ton of products out on the market that purport to get marijuana and other drugs out of your system quickly, they are not actually effective.  All you're going to get from these type of products is a slimmer wallet and a positive drug test.  Don't waste your time or your money.  Drugs will show up in your system regardless of what weird measures you try to take to get them flushed out.\n\nIf you are a chronic smoker of marijuana, it will stay in your system longer.  If you don't smoke as much marijuana (for example, you went to a party and had a few hits off a joint) then it will leave your system more quickly.  It can stay in your system for up to 30 days, again depending upon how much and how regularly you smoke.  If it has been at least two weeks, you're probably going to be okay.  Otherwise, you could try to switch your urine with someone else's.  Just make sure you don't switch it with a woman's urine, because if she is pregnant it's goign to be very strange...\n\nThe people suggesting that you take goldenseal or drink gallons of water are sadly misinformed.  People also may suggest you take other measures like drinking vinegar, etc.  You should be aware that you can actually die from drinking too much water--you have to drink a lot, but it does happen, and it's called water toxicity.

The active ingredient of marijuana (terahydrocannabinol-THC) is a fat-soluble molecule whose metabolites may remain in the body for s long as a month after a single exposure. THC metabolites are stored in the brain, testes, ovaries, and other fatty tissues. With even so-called "mild use" of marijuana smoking once or twice a week, THC will be continually present in the body and slowly released, affecting overall functioning to some degree. This is true whether or not the individual experiences being "high." Despite statements to the contrary, marijuana users, especially with more frequent use, do develop physiological tolerance to the drug which necessitates higher "doses" to achieve the same subjective experience of intoxication. So over time, without necessarily a concurrent increase in intensity or frequency of the sensation of intoxication, increasing levels of active substance will be stored in the body and trying to get a quicker release of the stored substance in your body is of no avail except don't smoke it (especially if your job or schooling prohibits it). Any statements that refer to 'passing the test' got lucky, as all test have a % chance of a false reading...    You will just be taking a chance Good Luck

if you are a heavy nug smoker (at least every day ) it will take about 4 weeks to completely leave your system.  also, the more fat cells you have, the longer it takes.. if you smoke on occasion it will take about 2 weeks..  \nif you need to pass a piss test i suggest you go to a health store and ask for something that will  no doubt clean the toxins from your body (don't mention the fact that you need to pass a piss test, this will alarm the worker not to sell it to you or ask you to leave).. and drink lots and lots of water.. about a gallon a day

THC in weed lasts for 30 days. BUT you can still test positive for it up to 3 months later.

i was in the same situation as you. i smoked 2 days prior to the mouth swab and still passed.  jus make sure that you get as little saliva on the swab as possible... maybe eat/drink somthing before hand.  I'm not a chronic smoker (sorry for the pun), but i do it once in a while... \n\n"In a study using RIA (Radioimmunoassay) test, cannabinoids were detected in saliva 4 to 10 hours after subjects smoked a single marijuana joint."\n\nYou Should be fine... Good Luck.\n\n-CAP

Only the marijuana plant contains the THC.  Some people extract the THC to put in brownies and stuff.   But there will be no way that the test will come out positive if he has been clean for.....depends on how long he's been using.  It takes 8 days per joint to clear any traces of THC from the urine.   If he smoked a lot, then it would probably take about 3 weeks to a month to clear.  The lab is pretty accurate, they can also detect if the person taking the pee test has diluted it in anyway.  So they're hardly faulty I'd say.  I'm very very sorry to break it to you.  1 year will go by before you know it.  It's not like he's been using heroine or crack, right?

Yes it does because the marijuana is released into the blood stream when smoked. That's how you get high off this substance and any other substance. If you use daily the pot will stay in your system for up to 12 weeks in some cases.

weed takes a month or so to clear out of your system no matter how much you smoked. dip your finger in bleach the day of let if dry on your finger and put it in the stream when you take the test.

You make a brilliant point. Thank you for supporting legalization! Please allow me to correct the imbecile above me before I move on.\n\nOk, Buddy, first off, marijuana doesnt stay in your system for thirty days. What stays in your body is the chemical THC. And it only stays there for about 2-3 weeks. And when it does stay in your body, it stays in your fat tissue. And you are not high for thirty days!!! What do you think that if you smoke a joint on the first of the month youll still be high by the 30th? Please...Do some research before you shoot your mouth off.\n\nOk, now that I got that out of my system, yes youre completely right. It should be legalized. But since no-one has yet told you the real reason why its illegal, I'm going to give you an article to read which explains it. Its very good, and 100% correct. I've researched every claim it makes and I can assure its all true. Have a look and keep spreading the word! Thanks\n\n\nPeace

the best way to get marijuana out of your system is to constantly drink water. Most drug tests test your urine for samples of it. Once it is all out, there is none to be found. Technically though, marijuana can be found in your hair follicles for up to years.

Okay. It all depends on how long ago and how often you smoke the ganja. If your a once and a while toker, it will take about 5-6 days to get out of your system by drinking a lot of water. If your a regular smoker (like me) it will take on average 30-60 days to get completely out of your system by drinking A LOT of water. There are also drinks, diets, and pills that you can take that will dehydrate you and clean all of the "impurities" out of your system. If you do decide to go that path, make sure you drink A LOT of water. Your hair will carry the THC in it until it completely grows out or you shave your head. All hair on your body will carry it. Your blood is almost the same as your urine, so as long as you drink a lot of water, you should be OKAY. Doesn't it suck that such an awesome plant is illegal? It's bull shit huh?

the active ingredient in marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is a lipid soluble compound that distributes itself throughout the body (not just fat cells!  all cells have fatty components) with concentrated amounts in the liver, kidneys, and lungs.  lipid soluble compounds are notoriously hard to get rid of. even if you exercise a lot and are very thin, your cell membranes and various connective tissues are lipid-based. drinking water won't do anything to increase the metabolic rate but it will dilute the blood concentrations of metabolites. but since it also increases the volume of the urine, you probably peed out the same amount of metabolites.\n\nTHC leaves the body mostly via urine as it is metabolized to more water-soluble compounds. the whole process begins almost immediately in the liver, but complete metabolism and excretion is slow.  the half-life is about 30 hours... so 30 hours after you smoked 4 bowls, assuming you didn't smoke again, you've got 2 bowls worth left in you. traces can be detected even thirty days later. these aren't exact figures, everyone's metabolic rate is different.\n\nif you smoked five weeks ago and not since, and gave an urine sample today, your results might be negative. you are still within the range, though... all i can say is keep your fingers crossed.\n\ni am curious what the purpose of the drug screening is. are you applying for a job? have you enlisted in the military? did you get caught in possession, and they are trying to build evidence against you in a trial? are you in rehab?\n\nin some cases, testing positive on a drug test is going to be very bad times for you. if it's a matter of getting hired or not... eh. there are other jobs, not everyone screens. using marijuana tends to make you lazy, dopey, slow-reacting, etc but not all jobs really need better performance than that. it's just a matter of showing up.... if you're in rehab--- you're not doing a good job but i'd personally rather you smoke pot than huff paint-thinner or snort coke. it's less damaging to your brain and body, and generally less addictive.\n\nif you're in legal trouble, however, this could be very bad times. current laws (are you in the US?) make it very easy to lock up marijuana users for a long time. possession of one joint can mean 20 years in state prison. the drug policy doesn't make sense, and is largely ineffective in its current state. i doubt it will change any time soon, though.

Depends on what type of drugs you have been taking and what type of test that they are doing;\n\nIf its something like pot, then first thing to remember is that it takes, naturally, 30-45 days to clear your system. \n\nThere are products on the market that you take a couple of hours prior to the test, these are basically a diuretic, they make you pee so much that when you finally take the test 2 hours later, there is not THC (the drug that they test for) in your system at that time.  This is only good for 1 test, as a few hours later the THC count will be up again as it is flushed out of your blood and into your pee, so timing is everything.\n\nIf its a blood test or a chemical analysis of your hair, then you have a problem!   If the hair one you can always shave off all your hair just before the exam so they can not get at it!  But would not suggest draining your blood!
