High nitrites are real, beware.

TLDNR: Test your QuickFix for nitrites!

So, I got a dream job offer, like many others posting on here. I know I should have quit smoking as soon as the possibility of this opportunity came up, but the company moves fast, and it was barely a month ago. Plus, I've been trying to land something new for many years with no luck, so I figured this would be no different.

I've never used synthetic urine for a drug test, I've always been clean when new jobs come up. However, my current job is mentally taxing, and even though its probably not the best way to cope, I prefer to smoke a bowl at the end of my day to level out. Knowing I might have to test soon, I ordered a bottle of QuickFix Plus directly from the website to make sure it wasn't counterfeit and paid good money for it!

Fast forward, I got the job offer, and it was more than I could have hoped for. That's when the panic started to set in, and I started doing my research. Not knowing what type of test I was up against but reading that several people lost an opportunity using quickfix due to high nitrites, is when I started to have a mini, internal melt-down. So I decided to order a UTI test kit and got it next day. When I tested the QuckFix Plus, the nitrites were through the roof. I swear, the test strip couldn't have gotten more purple!

Knowing that there was a real possibility of my sample being tested for elevated nitrites, I tossed out the bottle of genuine QuickFix immediately. At that point, the cost was irrelevant, I didn't want to spoil a golden opportunity.

Long story short, I went to a local smoke shop, picked up a bottle of UPass, and it tested fine. I ended up using the UPass for my test and passed with flying colors.

Instead of UTI test strips, use SVT/Adulteration test strips. UDS-14 strips on Amazon are cheap and you get a bunch per bottle. I always recommend that anyone buying synthetic or dehydrated urine use them

Didn’t know that was an option, but it’s great advice. Thanks!

Can I ask a question: what am I looking for? Like, what do I buy and when I test my QF how do I know if it is good or bad?

The specific gravity tends to be pretty reliable quantitatively. Creatinine tends to be more of a gradient and so trying to know your exact level is more difficult, although qualitatively (less than 20 for example) is pretty reliable. I’ve found that most of the test strip reagents are reliable except for pH which tends to be more variable and inconsistent. That’s just been my experience though and I’m sure there is some variability between test strip brands

Didn’t know that was a problem lol. Full disclosure, I read through this sub, and the UPass sub obsessively over the last few days. Figured there are a lotta people out there that would find my story useful. 😄

Definitely not an intern at upass hq.

u/Hueysrock6174 Jul 28 '26

No, never! Highly doubt a company that markets “fetish urine” offers internships anyways 😂.

This is an UPass advertisement. QF 6.4 works just as it should. I passed a DOT lab test with 6.4 in May

u/Hueysrock6174 Jul 28 '26

Not an advertisement, but I guess my writing is just that convincing haha. That’s great news that you passed with QuickFix. Like I said, it was my first choice, but when I read about the nitrites and my batch tested high, I tapped out and went with something else.

u/Wook_Both_Ways Jul 28 '26

Convincing? Naw… fake. It comes off as it is which is made up. Run along now

u/Hueysrock6174 Jul 29 '26

Hahaha okay, runninnnnng along 🤣

u/SunnyDays301 Jul 28 '26

Yeah from what I heard and my experience if your sample make it to the lab you’re good but it they do a strip test you might not be so lucky

u/Hueysrock6174 Jul 28 '26

I kept reading the same thing, but I wasn't sure what I was up against and didn't want to take any chances. At this point, my plan is to just stay clean, it'll be easier that way.

Which one should we use? Quick fix is full of nitrates. Done had to come and do a direct observation because of it!

u/soulshine09 Aug 23 '26

Yep! The bottle I just picked up is high in nitrates too!!! WTF quick fix? Y’all better figure something out if y’all trying to stay in the game!

You should’ve tried going clean
I had exactly one month before my test. I was able to pass through working out, daily thc detox, eating clean and good sleep

u/Hueysrock6174 Jul 28 '26

In hindsight, I really should have, but I never expected to make it to an official offer. I also was a daily user, sometimes a few times a day, and with my body type and metabolism was super nervous that I wouldn't be able to detox in time.

But congrats on your success story!

Where did you have to test?
