Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug test panels identify the number of substances screened. Common panels include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, with options for customized screening available.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test is a technical analysis of a biological specimen, such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva, to detect the presence or absence of selected drugs or their metabolites. Key applications include identifying performance-enhancing steroids in sports and screening for illicit drugs by employers and parole officers. Blood alcohol content (BAC) testing, often done via breathalyzer, is another standard procedure. Various testing methods, differing in accuracy, sensitivity, and detection periods, exist. Drug testing can also involve quantitative analysis to guide responsible drug use.

Can Passive Smoke Inhalation Cause a False Positive?

"Passive" smoke exposure to marijuana is not deemed valid, as laboratory cut-off levels are set above those arising from such exposure.

Unexpected urine screen results might suggest a false negative or sample adulteration. For instance:

  • Low creatinine levels may imply tampering, either by fluid consumption prior to testing or adding water to the sample.
  • Creatinine levels and specific gravity help detect sample dilution. Labs may color toilet water blue to prevent dilution from the toilet.
  • Subjects might introduce enzymes to alter urine sample stability, although this often modifies pH levels, which are tested.

Drug Detection Duration

Detection periods, or look-back windows, depend on various factors:

  • Drug quantity taken
  • Frequency of use
  • Type of drug
  • Individual's metabolism and health
  • Fluids consumed post-ingestion
  • Exercise post-ingestion
  • Genetic factors affecting drug response
