Depends on a lot of other information. You need an attorney right now! Do not pass go do not collect two hundred dollars. A good attorney could be the difference between jail, and no jail.

I am always surprised when people ask, "What is my sentence going to be?" when they haven't even been to court let alone convicted. Drug DUI cases are easier to beat than alcohol DUIs because there's no clear standard such as ".08" as with alcohol. Whether or not X amount of "narcotics" in your system makes you too intoxicated to drive is for lawyers to debate. Call a lawyer right away.

Potential jail time and fines. Time to get an attorney to try to keep the worst case scenario from happening.
