In terms of benzoylecgonine (cocaine) urine test, what does ng / mL and what is considered high? I recently failed a urine test and ng / mL seemed outrageous,
Small details I am under 18, 6 feet tall, 140 lbs. I tested positive for cocaine with a "Benzoylecgonine GC / MS Conf" ng / ml level of 14,760.
Could someone explain to me what this number represents, which is considered high and low, and how many effects on health?
ng / ml means nanograms per milliliter.
Study drug thresholds for cocaine is 100 ng / ml
(Nothing less will not constitute a positive test for cocaine)
You ng / ml number also depends on how long before drug testing that you have used. Benzoylecgonine is a metabolite of cocaine, cocaine is not real detected in the urine. A higher number means that you most recently used cocaine.
How large number of effects on health? Death of cocaine can occur in people who use as little as 1 line of cocaine (~ 10 mg). However, your ng / ml number can not predict what effect, it depends entirely when you used cocaine compared to when your test was performed.
