Choosing the Right Drug Test Panel

Drug test groupings are termed panels. The popular options are 5, 10, and 12-panel tests, which designate the number of substances screened, although custom screenings are available upon request.

Understanding a Drug Test

A drug test analyzes a biological specimen—like urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva—to determine the presence or absence of certain drugs or their metabolites. Drug testing is majorly utilized in sports for steroid detection, by employers and parole officers for banned substances, and by law enforcement for blood alcohol content (BAC) via breathalyzers. Urinalysis is predominant in sports and workplace testing, though other methods vary in accuracy and detection periods. Drug tests may also provide quantitative analysis of illegal substances to promote informed usage.

Does Passive Marijuana Smoke Inhalation Lead to False Positives?

"Passive" exposure to cannabis smoke in a room with active smokers is unlikely to result in a false positive, as labs set cut-off levels higher than what passive inhalation could cause.

Abnormal urine screen results may indicate a false negative or deliberate sample tampering, such as:

• Low creatinine can suggest sample dilution, either from excessive water intake before the test or adding water to the sample.
• Creatinine levels, along with specific gravity, help identify diluted samples. Testing stations may color toilet water blue to avoid dilution from toilet water.
• Altering the urine with certain enzymes to affect stability often changes the pH, which is also tested.

Drug Retention Duration in the Body

The detection window, or look-back period, is influenced by several variables, including:

• Quantity of drug consumed
• Consumption frequency
• Drug type
• Individual metabolic rate and overall health
• Fluid intake since drug use
• Physical activity after drug use
• Genetic factors affecting drug response
