No one wants to face a drug test, but anyone who tokes should be aware of some basic testing facts. You know, just in case.

And if a drug test is indeed looming in your future, we suggest checking out our Drug Testing 101guide for more in-depth advice. Regardless, you don’t want to be caught blind-sided by these 7 drug testing myths.
