I am doing a DOT physical and test come Monday for a new position with a new company. Took a home test lastnight and failed. Will practice dilute today to get it down. It has been about a week since I have smoked. I am taking creatine, have B2's and aspirin. Almost sure I can pass using dilution following N2's guidelines. However, my question is this. I have heard some conflicting statements regarding the DOT physical. Many say I will have the opportunity to sub, and I would prefer this method, knowing I will be leaving the clinic having given a 100% clean sample. Others say I wont be able to sub because I will be asked to provide a sample while I am robed during the physical part of the exam, in which case I would need to dilute. I have read many threads and can't seem to find the exact information I am looking for. Does anyone know FOR SURE if I will be able to sub or is dilution my only option during the DOT physical? Thanks.

You might be able to sub, you might not. It all depends on when the Doctor asks you for your specimen. There are two samples you must give. One for medical testing, one for drug testing. Our clients' applicants go to the medical facility for the physical and then come to our collection facility for the drug test (or vice-versa). Some employers have the doctor at the medical facility do the entire thing.

Above are websites that spell out exactly what is required to be done regarding a DOT Physical. You can read them through and decide for yourself if you would be able to sub or not.

Thanks Sec. I think my best option is to prepare for both and hope that I can sub. I will being doing a practice run tomorrow to make sure I have the dilution method down. Rite Aid has THC tests on sale this week for $8.00. It's the cheapest I have found them.

I have my test Monday. I think I will post to the thread how the test was performed for those other unfortunates like myself.

Thanks again.
