The THC metabolites in marijuana can also be detected in the hair, blood and saliva but since our bodies are continually producing saliva the detection time of THC in the saliva is much shorter.  For a single use of marijuana the THC metabolites found in a saliva swab test can be detected for about twenty four to forty eight hours after usage.  Again, for chronic smokers, there is a higher (no pun intended) amount of toxins in the body so the detection time may be longer.

Saliva tests are becoming more popular because they are less intrusive than urine, blood and hair drug tests and the results obtained are a more accurate portrayal of recent drug activity. Saliva tests are designed to detect metabolite secretions from the oral tissues in the mouth so using a regular mouthwash would not deter the detection of the drug metabolites.  A detoxifying mouthwash would be necessary to kill any metabolites in the saliva for a short period of time so that the subject would be able to pass a mouth swab drug test.  The mouthwash will give the person about a thirty to forty minute window where the interior of the mouth will be coated with toxin killing agents so the drug metabolites will be rendered undetectable.  Alcohol, nicotine, marijuana, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines, methamphetamines are no match for the detoxifying mouthwash.  Most of the mouthwashes are also alcohol free so they won’t burn the inside of your mouth.  Much like blood, your saliva has to be clean from any unwanted toxins or must be cleaned with a detoxifying mouthwash in order to avoid detection.  (To Be Continued)
