Drug screenings are conducted in panels, which specify the number of drugs checked. The most common panels are 5, 10, and 12-panel tests, with custom panels available to meet specific needs.

Defining a Drug Test

A drug test involves analyzing a biological sample, such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva to identify the presence or absence of drugs or their metabolites. These tests play a significant role in sports for steroid detection, compliance checking by employers and legal authorities, and alcohol concentration determination by law enforcement (often via a breathalyzer). Urinalysis is predominantly used in workplaces and sports. Several methods with varying precision and detection capabilities are utilized for drug testing.

A drug test may also provide quantitative analysis of illegal substances, supporting responsible consumption.

Influence of Passive Marijuana Smoke

"Passive" inhalation of marijuana smoke, such as being near smokers, generally does not cause a false-positive test result due to established threshold levels that exceed possible passive exposure.

Laboratory anomalies, such as altered urine results, could suggest false negatives or intentional sample tampering. Tampering examples include:

• Low creatinine levels hinting at dilution, possibly from excessive water intake or added water;
• Creatinine checks, along with specific gravity tests, confirm sample integrity. Colored toilet water can prevent sample dilution;
• Adding enzymes to adjust pH can indicate tampering.

Drug Detection Windows

A drug's detection window varies with several factors, including:

• Drug quantity consumed
• Frequency of use
• Type of substance
• Individual's metabolic rate and health
• Volume of fluids consumed post-ingestion
• Exercise amount post-ingestion
• Genetic differences affecting drug response
