Do Shrooms (Psilocybin) Show Up on a Drug Test?

Short answer: not on a standard drug test. Psilocybin, the active compound in "magic mushrooms," is not included in common 5, 10 or 12 panel tests. It only shows up on a test with a psilocybin (PSY) panel or a dedicated psilocybin strip.

Tests that detect psilocybin

  • Psilocybin (PSY) test strips: single-drug dip strips, 500 ng/mL cutoff.
  • 14 panel drug test cup: includes a PSY panel along with kratom and alcohol (EtG).
  • Laboratory tests can detect psilocin, the compound psilocybin becomes in the body, when specifically ordered.

How long do shrooms stay in urine?

Psilocybin is processed quickly. It is usually detectable in urine for about 1 day, and up to about 3 days after heavy use. Because the window is short, timing matters more than with many other substances. See our detection times chart.

Why more programs are testing for it

Psilocybin has been decriminalized in some cities and approved for supervised use in a few states, and mushroom products (including gummies and chocolates) are more widely available. Programs that require abstinence from all substances are adding PSY testing so it does not go unnoticed. Check your state's current laws.

A note on "mushroom" products

Some products sold as mushroom gummies or "legal shrooms" contain no psilocybin at all, and instead contain other mushroom species or unlisted compounds. A PSY test will not detect those substances.
