I understand your concern; based on your description, this episode is most consistent with an acute episode of impaired awareness and memory that can occur with alcohol alone in combination with fatigue, dehydration, or mixing with other sedating substances, but drug-facilitated intoxication, for example, sedative agents such as GHB (gamma-hydroxybutyrate) or ketamine, cannot be excluded based on symptoms alone. From a medical testing perspective, a standard urine or blood toxicology test is only useful within a short time window, from hours to a few days depending on the substance, so after several days it is often no longer reliable. A hair follicle test can sometimes detect exposure to certain drugs for weeks to months, but it is not always sensitive for a single isolated exposure and cannot reliably determine timing or confirm a one-off event with certainty, so results must be interpreted cautiously.
