Update on oral swab test; still need some advice

[gaylesmomma]

Well, SWIM found out that she will be starting her new job on the 30th and some time after that she will have an oral swab test. She last used mj today and will stop until after the test. What chances does she have to pass?

Also, she was told to rinse before hand with both mouthwash and peroxide. Her question now is: should she mix them together, rinse and spit? Or rinse with them separately? And if separately, which one first?

Sorry to hit with so many questions, but I haven't found another place yet that I can get them.

Oral swab tests are ridiculously unreliable if one is testing for THC. A few days and one is more than safe from a positive saliva test. Most sources say it'll show positive from ingestion to 24-hours post-use by this method...personally, SWIM would play it safe and give it a bit extra time.

Okay, so give some extra time, that SWIM understands. But how much? SWIM sent an to Drug Busters (sell drug test kits) as a concerned parent of a teen they want to monitor for mj use. The reply back from that company stated to SWIM: "Here are the facts: Saliva tests are more sensitive but will only detect THC up to 13 hours. It could be a little longer, but that's the guidelines. Urine: can be up to 5 weeks out, depending on their usage."

Also, still would life some advice re: mouthwash and peroxide use. Together or separate? If separate, which one first?

And, pinksox, thanks for the reply!
