Accredited Drug Testing offers various testing solutions to meet different needs. Utilized by employers, courts, and schools, urine testing, detectable for 1 to 5 days, is the most prevalent.

Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug testing panels refer to the array of drugs being screened. Common panels include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests, with customization options available to suit different needs.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test involves analyzing a biological sample—urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to detect the presence or absence of specific drugs or their metabolites. Primary applications include detecting performance-enhancing drugs in sports, employer screenings for illegal substances, and police checks for blood alcohol levels. BAC (blood alcohol content) is often tested with a breathalyzer, while urine analysis prevails in workplace and sports scenarios. A drug test may also provide quantitative analysis of illegal substances for informed use.

Does Secondhand Marijuana Smoke Result in a Positive Test?

The possibility of testing positive from passive marijuana smoke is unlikely, as lab cutoff levels are considerably above what could occur from passive exposure.

Oddities in urine screening might suggest false negatives or deliberate sample tampering. For example:

• Low creatinine levels could indicate dilution by either excessive water intake before testing or water was added to the sample.
• Testing labs may color toilet water blue to prevent sample dilution.
• Adding enzymes to alter urine stability affects its pH, which is also tested.

Duration of Drug Presence in Your System

Detection windows for drug tests are influenced by various factors. Elements affecting duration in the system include:

• Dosage of the drug
• Frequency of use
• Drug type
• Individual metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake after consumption
• Physical activity post-ingestion
• Genetic variations affecting drug response
