Selecting the Right Drug Testing Panel

Drug tests are categorized by panels, specifying the number of substances screened: common options include 5-panel, 10-panel, and 12-panel tests. Custom test panels are also available.

Understanding Drug Tests

Drug tests analyze biological samples—such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to detect drug presence or its metabolites. These tests have critical applications, including monitoring performance-enhancing drugs for athletes, legal compliance for employees, and alcohol levels for law enforcement. The widely-used urinalysis and breathalyzers administer the majority of workplace and sports drug testing. Some tests offer a quantitative analysis of illegal drugs to guide safer usage.

Passive Smoke Inhalation and False Marijuana Positives

Passive exposure to marijuana smoke is unlikely to result in false positives as lab analysis cutoffs exceed levels achievable by passive inhalation.

Unexpected results may suggest false negatives or intentional adulteration. For instance:

• Low creatinine levels may signal that a urine sample was diluted purposely, either through excessive water intake before testing or by adding water directly to the sample.
• Used alongside specific gravity, creatinine helps assess sample dilution. Test locations might dye toilet water blue to prevent tampering.
• Attempted enzymes additions to a sample for stability purposes frequently alter its pH, which is also tested.

Drug Detection Period

The detection window for drugs depends on variable factors. These may include:

• Drug Dosage Amount
• Frequency of Usage
• Drug Type
• Personal Metabolic Rate and Health
• Fluid Intake After Usage
• Physical Activity Post-Usage
• Genetic Variations Affecting Drug Response
