will acohol show positive on a drug test or will it not show up at all?

Answer:
If the test includes alcohol it will show positive for ethanol. Usually if the test is 48 hours after you drink the alcohol won't show. If you are over 21 in the US alcohol is legal so it shouldn't keep you from a job. Lots of people have a few drinks after work. If you are underage and are found positive for alcohol or if you are doing the test as part of a drug treatment program then it might look so good. If you are diabetic and spilling glucose then the test might show false positive for ethanol.

i don't think so i know alot of people that drink and smoke and so far the alcohol dose not show up

they only test you for drugs unless you have a alcohol and drug test, then yes it will depending on how long you drank before the test

When you get yourself tested for drugs, they are not looking for alcohol. It's the bigger stuff they are interested in like pot, cocain, etc. I would not advise you to party all night drinking anyway b'cause if they smell that on you then they will report that and all companies don't want people that drink too much.

The drug test has to actually test for alcohol. There are many things a drug test can look for, alcohol being one of them.Alcohol , marijuana, and cocaine (amphetamines) are the three most popular for employment testing.

It all depends on if they test for it or not, I was told once that a drug test I would be taking would show any alcohol consumed within the past 24 hours, however this was not the case, my test came back negative. This could also be because alcohol is only in your system for like 8-12 hours and I was drinking alot of water and taking niacin.

it depends on the test and the duration if its after a couple hours yes days it would require an extensive test but it would show as ethonal and it also depends on alcohol levels
