alcohol how long in your system
Alcohol is metabolized by the body at the rate of approximately 1 standard drink every hour (if you want to be safer, you can use 1 1/2 hour) If you were to drink 6 beers (12 ounce), the alcohol would be eliminated in approximately 6 - 9 hours. Urine produced AFTER this period would be negative for alcohol. (You need to remember that urine that was produced during this time would still have alcohol if you had not emptied your bladder after this time). Essentially, except with exceptionally heavy alcohol consumption, a urine alcohol test done 12-24 hour later would be negative.
