Cetirizine HCL, an antihistamine, does not typically cause a false drunk reading on a breathalyzer. While it can cause drowsiness, it does not produce alcohol-like effects or metabolites that would interfere with breathalyzer measurements. However, combining cetirizine with alcohol may amplify drowsiness or impair coordination, but it would not mimic the presence of alcohol in breath tests. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific concerns regarding medication and alcohol interactions.

What if you don't breath hard into a breathalyzer?

If you don't breathe hard enough into a breathalyzer, the device may not be able to accurately measure your breath alcohol content. This could result in an inconclusive or inaccurate reading. It's important to follow the instructions provided with the breathalyzer to ensure a reliable result.


Could nuts cause false breathalyzer results?

Not unless they were soaked in alcohol.


How could a colorimeter be used in a breathalyzer test?

A colorimeter could be used in a breathalyzer test to measure the intensity of color change that occurs when an alcohol-based sample is processed. The color change corresponds to the concentration of alcohol in the sample, allowing for quantitative analysis of blood alcohol content. This measurement can then be used to determine if a person is under the influence of alcohol.


If alcohol in mouthwash can make you fail a breathalizer or what about a inhailor from asthma?

Alcohol in mouthwash may cause you to fail a breathalyzer test because the residual alcohol remains in your mouth for up to 15 minutes after using. The breathalyzer will pick up this residual alcohol in your breath and not differentiate whether it came from mouthwash or beverages. You should never take a breathalyzer test within 15 minutes of taking mouthwash or an alcoholic beverage in order to let the residual mouth alcohol dissipate.Mouthwash can cause a positive result on an ETG test. Whether or not an asthma medication could do the same thing would depend on whether it contained alcohol, how often it was used, and when the test was give.


Do they make car breathalyzer?

Yes, they do! A car breathalyzer is one of the last barriers to drunk driving prevention for DUI offenders who want to stay out of jail. A car breathalyzer, also known as an ignition interlock device, (or the Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety) requires drivers to give a breath sample prior to starting their cars. If the breathalyzer detects a certain amount of alcohol, the car simply will not start. But by 2012 or so, in-car breath sniffers could be standard equipment in every new vehicle sold, force-fed to you by the tag team of Washington, Detroit and, Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD).


Do bio-plus have an affect on a Breathalyzer?

Bio-plus, which typically refers to a nutritional supplement, should not have a direct impact on a Breathalyzer test. Breathalyzers detect the presence of alcohol in a person's breath by measuring blood alcohol concentration. Consuming a nutritional supplement like bio-plus should not alter the results of a Breathalyzer test unless the supplement contains alcohol or any other substance that could be detected by the device. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional or the manufacturer of the supplement for specific information on its ingredients and potential interactions with alcohol testing devices.


Will you pass a breathalyzer after not drinking for 10 hours?

You had one drink and you have to take a pee test how long does it take for the alcohol to get out of your system?

It depends on the test. If it's a breathalyzer test, don't worry about it. If it's an EGT, could take as long as three days, but probably less.


Can a breath test detect alcohol that is absorbed through the skin?

Absorption through the skin is extremely limited, although it could add to the blood alcohol content. It would still be detected by the Breathalyzer because it measures alcohol leaving the bloodstream in the lungs.


Can hypothermia increase blood alcohol reading?

While I am not a physician, I honestly can't see how it could have any impact.There's a little complication here: hypothermia CAN change the breath alcohol reading; there have been a couple of papers published showing that mild hypothermia can cause a breathalyzer to read noticeably higher (about 20% higher) than it should based on the actual blood alcohol concentration. However, the same study found that it had no impact on the blood alcohol decay curve.If you're hoping to get out of a DUI this way, from a legal standpoint it doesn't really matter WHY your blood alcohol concentration was over 0.08%, it only matters THAT your blood alcohol concentration was over 0.08%. If it was a breath test only, you might be able to argue that you read higher than you should have because you were cold. If they actually took a blood sample, then the concentration was what it was and you're pretty much hosed.
