The short answer is yes, THC-O is likely to show up on a drug test, just like traditional THC products. This is because drug tests usually look for 11-hydroxy-THC, a metabolite of THC created by the body after consumption. While it may be tempting to try THC-O for its intoxicating effects and euphoria, it's important to remember that you can always take more but you can't take less. Start small and enjoy the effects before you increase your dose, and be sure to detoxify if you have an upcoming drug test.
THC-O is very similar to Delta-9 THC, so a standard drug test is likely to detect it as such. Unfortunately, there is currently no research to support this, so you should consider yourself at high risk of failing a drug test if you have THC-O in your system. It will be difficult to prove that you have mainly used hemp-derived products, which are legal under federal law when you take a drug test. When it comes to drug tests, the window of opportunity for each test is unique.
As a result, the period in which THC-O can be detected in your system will vary depending on the methodology used to perform the test. THC-O, also known as “THC-O acetate”, is a THC compound that is said to be approximately three times more potent than delta-9 THC. The number one factor in determining how long THC can be detected in the body is the method used to analyze the metabolites of THC. This metabolite helps break down THC in the system, and its fat-soluble nature allows it to remain in the body for days or weeks after you last consume THC.
