Selecting the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug test groups, also known as panels, include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests (indicating the number of drugs screened), tailored options are also offered.

Understanding Drug Testing

Drug testing involves the technical analysis of biological samples, such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva, to find parent drugs or their metabolites. Uses include identifying performance-enhancing substances in sports, drug screenings for employers or probation officers, and determining alcohol levels (BAC) in law enforcement contexts. BAC is typically assessed using a breathalyzer, while urinalysis is prevalent in sports and work environments. Many methods exist with varied accuracy, sensitivity, and detection times. Drug testing may also quantitatively analyze illegal drugs to promote responsible use.

Impact of Passive Smoke Inhalation on Marijuana Tests

Inhaling marijuana "passively" from second-hand smoke does not lead to a false positive, as lab cut-off levels exceed passive inhalation exposure.

Other urine test irregularities may indicate false negatives or deliberate sample tampering. For example:

• Low creatinine levels may signal urine dilution by excessive water intake or direct tampering with the sample's content.
• Creatinine readings are often paired with specific gravity measures to detect dilution. To prevent this issue, labs may dye toilet water blue.
• Subjects might introduce enzymes to stabilize urine samples, which can alter pH levels, leading to further testing.

Drug Persistence in Your System

The detection window for drug tests, also known as the look-back period, relies on various factors. Influential elements include:

• Drug quantity consumed
• How often the drug is used
• The specific drug type
• Individual's metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake post-drug use
• Exercise level post-drug usage
• Genetic differences affecting drug response
