80 Hour Alcohol Drug Test

Detects alcohol use for up to roughly 80 hours — far longer than a breathalyzer — by measuring the EtG metabolite in urine. Lab-analyzed and MRO-certified.

$ 59.00All-in price
1Tests included

A breathalyzer only catches alcohol still in your system. This test measures ethyl glucuronide (EtG) — a metabolite the body produces after drinking — which can be detected for up to roughly 80 hours after the last drink. That extended window makes it the standard choice for abstinence monitoring in probation, treatment, and custody situations. Every result is reviewed and certified by a licensed Medical Review Officer.

Included Tests

Alcohol EtG Urine Test
A urine sample analyzed for ethyl glucuronide (EtG), a direct marker of recent alcohol consumption detectable for up to roughly 80 hours.
Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG)

What This Panel Measures

📅
An 80-hour look-back. EtG lingers far longer than alcohol itself, catching drinking that a breathalyzer or blood test would have already missed.
🚫
Abstinence verification. The go-to test where any drinking must be ruled out — probation, treatment programs, and custody monitoring.
🔬
Direct alcohol marker. EtG is produced only after alcohol is consumed, making it a specific indicator of actual use.
✅
MRO-certified. Results are analyzed by an accredited lab and certified by a licensed Medical Review Officer before release.

Who Should Get This Panel

  • Individuals in recovery who want to document abstinence
  • Probation, parole, or court-ordered alcohol monitoring

When to Get Tested

Use an EtG test when you need to confirm no alcohol use over the past few days rather than at a single moment. Because the window is roughly 80 hours, test within that period of the timeframe you need to verify. Everyday exposure to alcohol-containing products (mouthwash, hand sanitizer, some foods) can occasionally influence results, so follow any avoidance guidance from the requesting program.

Understanding Your Results

Results post to your secure online account, usually in 1–2 business days after the lab receives your sample. A negative means no significant EtG was detected over the look-back window; a positive indicates alcohol was consumed within roughly the prior 80 hours. Results are reviewed and certified by a licensed Medical Review Officer (MRO), kept 100% confidential, and never billed to insurance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long after drinking can EtG be detected?
EtG can typically be detected for up to roughly 80 hours after the last drink, depending on how much was consumed. That's why it's used for abstinence monitoring rather than measuring current impairment.
Is an EtG result accepted by courts and probation?
Yes. Results are lab-analyzed and certified by a licensed Medical Review Officer (MRO), the standard most courts and probation programs require. Confirm any specific chain-of-custody requirements with the requesting party before testing.
Can everyday products cause a positive?
Heavy exposure to alcohol-containing products such as mouthwash, hand sanitizer, or certain foods can occasionally register. Programs that require EtG testing usually provide guidance on products to avoid before your test.
Does this measure how much I drank or if I'm impaired?
No. EtG confirms that alcohol was consumed within the detection window; it does not measure blood alcohol level or current impairment. A breathalyzer or blood alcohol test is used for impairment.
