The timeframe for drug detection periods vary with the type of substance being used - but please note that these cycles are only an indication, and are not guaranteed since
many factors can influence the results.

There are some local legends that abound regarding the way in which to circumvent and "pass" a substance test, such as ingesting large amounts of syrup before being tested for cannabis (dope, dagga) - but as far as we are aware, there are no ways to circumvent these tests, and that the relevant drug detection periods are more or less stable.
