Dirty UA

Hi If anyone could help me with this question will be great. My uncle has a AU today and he's scared it will be dirty. He bought a jar of pickled herring in wine, will this effect his UA?

hi. i'm assuming you are questioning if the test will give a positive result for alcohol. it depends how much alcohol or alcohol saturated substances were consumed. in my nonprofessional opinion, i'd say no as the threshold used in most drug screens is too high to register a positive without intentional consumption of alcoholic beverages. it also depends if the test criteria is based on a zero tolerance protocol (any consumption vs. intoxicating consumption). good luck,  gm
