How Fast Can You Get Delta 8 Out of Your System?
There is no hard and fast answer to how quickly you can clear Delta 8 from your system. What we can tell you is that typically a one- or two-time user can clear it much faster from their system than heavy users. A single-time user may clear Delta 8 THC from their urine in as little as a few days, while a heavy user may take a month to completely clear THC from their system. Occasional users may clear Delta 8 from their urine in a week or two. However, everyone's body is different and there is no guarantee as to the time frame that it will take Delta 8 to clear your system, no matter how much of it you have taken.

Will Delta 8 Make You Fail a Drug Test?
Unfortunately, drug screenings cannot differentiate between Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC. So, you can get a positive result for THC on a drug test. If you know you have to take a drug test, your best bet is to avoid taking Delta 8 at all. Those who have only used it once or twice may be able to clear it from their urine within a few days. For heavy users it could take closer to a month (in rare cases even longer) of abstinence to clear it from your urine. But, there is no guarantee that you will pass a drug test since everyone will clear the compound from their system at different rates.
While most drug tests use urine, there are other types of drugs tests. Hair follicle drug tests can detect THC for up to three months after use. Oral drug tests use saliva and usually only detect THC for about two days after use. Blood tests can detect THC for only one or two days.
If you are in a time crunch, it may be a good idea to explain to your boss or whoever is requiring a drug test that you are likely to pop positive because you use a legal substance called Delta 8. They may allow you time to clear it from your system or they may not. It is definitely worth a shot though.
How Long Does Delta 8 Stay in Your System?
Delta 8 can stay in your urine for one month or longer. However, for most people Delta 8 is cleared from urine in less than a week. Delta 8 metabolites can remain in blood and saliva for about two days and in hair for up to 90 days.
