Drug Detox: Methadone Facts

Question: Are there drug detox options for women who are pregnant?

Are there any pregnancy safe drug detox products for urine and/ or hair drug testing? Most of the products I have seen say not to use it or to consult a physician if pregnant. The woman in question was a special occasion user of marijuana. She has not used it since she found out she was pregnant a couple of weeks ago. She has been offered a job that would be great for her & the baby, but if the job asks for a hair test (which goes back 90 days), she would likely not pass. So are there any detox shampoos or other products that would be safe?

Drug detox for pregnant women should only be done under proper medical supervision. That said, why would a pregnant woman need to cheat a drug test? That is the sickest thing I've heard yet. She should be clean before getting pregnant. If she is in the sad situation to be using drugs during her pregnancy rather than seek products to fool the drug tests she should be looking to get off the drugs immediately.
