Determining the Suitable Drug Testing Panel for You

Drug testing groups are typically called panels, with 5, 10, and 12-panel drug tests being most common (indicating the number of drugs screened). Custom testing panels are also available.

Understanding a Drug Test

A drug test involves analyzing a biological sample - urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva - to detect specific substances or their byproducts. Common uses include identifying performance-enhancing drugs in sports, screening for legally prohibited drugs by employers or probation officers, or testing blood alcohol levels typically via breathalyzer. Urinalysis is a widespread method in employment and sports drug testing. Various testing methods exist, defined by accuracy, sensitivity, and detection time. Drug tests may also provide quantitative analysis of illicit drugs, helping ensure responsible use.

Does Passive Marijuana Smoke Inhalation Cause a False Positive?

Being in an environment where marijuana is smoked usually doesn't affect test results, as laboratory cut-off levels are set above typical potential passive exposure.

Other urine test irregularities could suggest false-negative results or sample adulteration. Examples include:

• Low creatinine levels may indicate sample tampering, such as excessive water intake by the subject or water addition. Labs often counter this by coloring toilet water blue.
• Creatinine levels are used with specific gravity to detect sample dilution. To prevent tampering, test facilities may color toilet water to prevent dilution.
• Some subjects attempt adding enzymes to alter urinalysis stability, potentially altering pH, which is also tested.

How Long Do Drugs Remain Detectable?

The detection window or look-back period for drugs varies, influenced by several elements, such as:

• Drug dosage
• Frequency of use
• Drug type
• Individual's metabolic rate and general health
• Fluid intake following drug use
• Exercise performed after drug use
• Additional genetic factors influencing drug response
