How Long Does THC Stay in Saliva Swab Test?
THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) is the chemical in cannabis that is responsible for marijuana’s various psychological effects.
Most research shows that THC is detectable from 12 to 24 to even 72 hours after use. This is for people who only use cannabis for recreation; they are considered infrequent users. However, for people who regularly use cannabis, it’s a different story.
Saliva tests can detect THC in the saliva of heavy users from 30 hours after use. There have even been cases of THC being detected by tests in very frequent users all the way up to a month after cannabis was used.

Do Mouth Swabs Test for Alcohol?
Mouth swab tests can determine the presence of alcohol in the body. Approximately 12 to 24 hours after consumption, metabolites of alcohol can be detected in saliva. An absorbent pad at end of a stick collects saliva from the inner cheek. For preparation, the person has to take nothing 10 minutes prior to swab.
Testing with this method is most effective for people who have consumed alcohol recently. Beyond 24 hours, it is not helpful. Saliva by then contains no metabolites of alcohol.
The test is popularly used for deterring alcohol-related problems in the workplace. Likewise, it has been used to detect alcohol in work-related accidents.
How Far Back Does a Mouth Swab Go?
A mouth swab, also known as a saliva test, can generally detect the presence of drugs anywhere from 5 to 48 hours upon use.
It must be noted however that how far back a mouth swab test goes may also be affected by the sensitivity of the test used, the types of drugs detected, and the length and frequency of drug use.
Mouth swab tests can detect drugs within 30 minutes of ingestion. This test is usually preferred for its ease of specimen collection and cost-effectiveness.
When testing for recent drug use, a mouth swab is preferred over urine or blood drug tests.

Have Not Heard Back from Drug Test...
Drug test results typically take 24 to 48 hours after administering the test. But windows of detection may vary based on the type of tests being administered, such as urine, blood, hair, or saliva.
The rapid drug test, however, can deliver much faster results in under 10 minutes compared with the standard drug test.
However, if you haven’t heard back about your result for more than a week, there may be something wrong. Typically, the common delays in drug test results is caused by two factors. This includes:
Delay at collections sites.
Collection delays are usually caused by simple collector mistakes. Among the reasons are: omitting the donor’s signature on the vial, failing to correctly file the forms at the collection site, and failing to send in the urine samples as soon as possible.
Delays at the lab
There may be delays if the test does not confirm a negative or positive result. Another reason is that positive results are sent to MRO review, which can take over a week.
