Shrooms, commonly known as hallucinogenic mushrooms, typically do not show up on standard drug tests
. Standard drug tests usually screen for substances such as amphetamines, cocaine, opiates, and marijuana (THC)
. However, specialized tests can detect psilocybin and psilocin, the psychoactive compounds in shrooms, within a window of 1 to 3 days after consumption
. Detection windows for shrooms on specialized drug tests:
- Urine Tests: Up to 24 hours after use
- Blood Tests: Up to 15 hours after consumption
- Saliva Tests: Up to 24 hours after use; can detect psilocin as soon as 30 minutes after ingestion
- Hair Tests: Can detect shrooms for up to 3 months
- Fingernail Tests: Can detect shrooms for up to 6 months, but may take 1 to 2 weeks to show up
Factors that influence how long shrooms remain detectable in the system include dosage, frequency of use, genetics, and overall health
