So... I'm 5' 4" and 115 pounds...I didn't smoke pot for about 2 1/2 months... Then, I decided to have a couple of hits off a joint last week. I'm enrolled in a pharmacy study which pays alot of money and requires me to be drug free for at least three months prior to participation. I dunno if you guys are familiar with this type of thing... The company is named Algorithme, it's based out of Montreal, Quebec, Canada... They want me to do a drug test next monday... That would make it about 16 days after I had those two hits... If I fail the drug test, I will not be permitted to do the study... I'm really scared about that happening... Is there anything I can do?

I'm thinking this test, more than any other, is going to be a zero tolerance. That is, if they want people who have been drug free for 3 months, they will run the test at the lowest detectable level. This type of test will be very hard to beat. The fact that you only had a couple of hits in the past 3 months (at the time of your test) will go in your favor.

Then there is the moral issue. They want (need) to control every aspect of their study. If you do not meet their criteria, and actually beat the test and participate in the study, does that skew their results of the study? Is that fair to the people sponsoring the study?

While I really don't think a "couple of hits off a joint", 2+ weeks before the start of the study is really going to muck up the results of any study, in my opinion, you should respect their requirements and withdraw from the study.

I know the about the moral issues. It sucks but I honestly don't believe that this will make a big difference in their test. I was just inquiring about my levels of THC and if they might be detected... The moral issue is my cross to bear...
