Dies alcohol show on drug tests? If so how long does it take to clear out of your body?

Additional Details I had barely any of it though, i had like half a mikes and the test is in 2 days....

Sid90	Alcohol doesn't show on drug tests. Although if you drank excessive, that might be a problem, but you that's not the case, so don't worry.
Karen Smith	It should be out of your body...i dont think it shows up on drug tests. Just drink LOTS of water to flush it out of your system just in case =]
Mallory	So...I'm guessing that if you're taking a drug test, you probably shouldn't be drinking anyways?
metalhead	yes alchohol shows in tests and takes about 48 hrs to clear but drug tests are ussually looking for the illegal variety.
curlytop	A drug test for a job is searching for illegal drugs or drugs you cannot produce valid prescriptions for. If you are 21 then you don't have to worry. If you are not 21 and they do a urine test you should be fine. If they do a blood test and it has been 12 hours since your last drink you should be ok. Good luck.
draecoiram	yeah, it'll show, but alcohol gets out of your system in 24 hrs or less.
williamfield76	unless the test administered is actually looking for alcohol then no. Drug test typically look for key toxins, opiates, CNS stims things like that. If it is a drug test for an employer then chances are no
Terence C	Only if they test for alcohol. Companies do not test for alcohol but the court does.
Sorcha	In two days it should be gone. Drink some water so you don't dehydrate.
Trust Me	yes don't drink the day before your test.
stina	it will if in fact you are drunk while giving your test other than that it will pass out of your system within an hour per drink you have ingested
I'm 1 up on you!!	Alcohol will show on a alcohol test. If the equipment is designed for just drug testing then chances are it will not register alcohol. It takes approx 1 hour per beer. 1 hour per shot for your body to get rid of it
Add Man	They don't test for alcohol. Drug tests are very expensive to perform therefore there is always a set agenda for specifically what is being tested for.
jkm65	No. Alcohol won't show up on a normal drug test. It takes about 1 hour per drink to leave your system. That's 1-12oz beer or 1-shot or 1 glass of wine.
Britanie	some it can it takes about 6 months
bella	Maybe. Depends on the test. It takes a full day. Check out this site: http://www.erowid.org/psychoactives/testing/testing_info1.shtml and then get help if you need it.
isiseamenhotep	It does show up, but it leaves your system in a matter of hours. Don't drink the night before.
** LiSS ** <3	yes it shows on drugs tests. It takes 24 hours for alcohol to clear out
Lance	Alcohol is gone in a matter of hours for the most common drug tests. The rule of thumb is one drink deleted for every hour after you stopped. You've got nothing to worry about! Good luck on your test! (Don't forget to study!)
shelby_st97	Yes.. Alcohol leaves the body at a rate of .015 rate per hour. So if after drinking.. you take a blood or uine test.. it will show up.. and since a drug test is either blood or urine.. then its a sure bet!
Gillian	No, it will not show up on a drug screening test. It clears at about the rate of one drink per hour.
skcs69	About 24 hours.
babyjustn	No it doesn't show unless you take an alcohol test - you should be fine
Act D	most modern drug tests are panel tests, which test for a wide variety of substances, usually including alcohol. it will take over an hour for 1 drink to be metabolized and out of your system, however, the more you drink in a short period of time, the longer it will take to metabolize and be out of your system (ie; 1 drink = 1 hour, 6 drinks may take longer than 8 hours). the by products can be in your system for a good 24 hours. 1 hour after having 1 drink, your blood alcohol level would be at it's peak. if you have recently eaten, it could be even longer yet. most of the alcohol is metabolized by the liver, but a small amount is exhaled in your breath, and whatever else is left that the liver cannot metabolize may be passed out of the system in the urine.
Dan The Man	Yes. But if you are of drinking age what are you worried about ?
wilkyway79	My company does drug screening as part of background checks. Your employer can order alcohol and Nicotine drug testing as part of your background check. Whether or not the detect what you drank all depends on the type of test they run. They can do it either by urine, hair or saliva. As far as how long - Saliva - the time period during which alcohol and drugs can be detected by this method is relatively low, 3 hours to 4 days max. Urine - can be detected for several days to weeks after use, depending upon the type, frequency, and amount. Hair - many days, weeks, or months, depending on the drug type and amount of usage.
Angel	No and "the liver can process one ounce of liquor (or one standard drink) in one hour. If you consume more than this, your system becomes saturated, and the additional alcohol will accumulate in the blood and body tissues until it can be metabolized."
Eric Shun	Why? Not ready to go back to jail?
Tiggers	You are being misled! Alcohol DOES show up on a standard drug test if the test is screened for alcohol. Depending on how much you drink will determine how long it can be detected in a standard urine toxicology screen. It can be detected anywhere from 24-72 hours after consumption. In some cases longer. I see it all the time at work. So...if you are or will be tested for a current job or pre-employment, my advice to you would be to not drink prior to the test. Good luck and hope this helps!
tennesseefrost	my husband is truck driver and is tested all the time. yes they check there for drugs and alcohol. Not sure of cleansing time, but he refuses to drink unless he has a couple days afterwards to clean up. oh, and he drinks very little when he does drink, usually one mixed drink is all.
agrah1@prodigy.net	alcohol is a separtate test.. as are each drug but they can be lumped together in a "panel" and one sample used for many of them. alcohol clears at roughly one portion per hour to hour and half depending on body mass, stomach contents, overall health.... on portion is 6 oz wine 1 oz liquer 12 oz beer more or less... remember they can have higher alcohol content in their category....
