Determining the Right Drug Testing Panel for You

Drug screening categories or 'panels' are identified by the number of substances screened. Common panels include the 5, 10, and 12-drug tests, with customization options available to suit specific needs.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test involves analyzing a biological sample such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva to detect specified drugs or their metabolites. The primary uses include detecting performance-enhancing steroids in sports, ensuring compliance with legal drug prohibitions for employers and legal authorities, and determining blood alcohol concentration (BAC) through breathalyzers. Urinalysis is widely employed in both sports and workplaces. Numerous testing methods with various levels of accuracy, sensitivity, and detection windows exist.

The Effect of Passive Smoke on Marijuana Test Results

Passive inhalation from being near individuals smoking marijuana does not typically result in a positive test, as laboratory cutoff levels exceed those achievable through passive exposure.

Inconsistencies in urine test results may suggest a false negative or intentional sample tampering. For instance:

• Low creatinine levels may indicate sample dilution, perhaps due to excessive fluid intake by the subject or by adding water directly to the sample.
• Creatinine levels and specific gravity are both used to detect sample dilution. To prevent incidents, some labs use blue dye in toilet water.
• Adding certain enzymes to a sample can alter stability, often detected through pH testing.

Drug Detection Timelines in Your System

Detection periods vary according to multiple factors, such as:

• Dosage consumed
• Frequency of use
• Drug type
• Individual metabolic rate and health condition
• Fluid intake post-consumption
• Physical activity level post-consumption
• Genetic differences influencing individual drug metabolism
