Which Drug Testing Panel Suits You?

Drug tests, or panels, vary based on the number of drugs screened. The popular tests include 5, 10, and 12-panel options, with customized screenings also available.

Understanding Drug Tests

A drug test involves analyzing a biological sample—such as urine, hair, or saliva—to detect specific drug metabolites. They're used in sports, workplaces, and legal settings to verify drug use.

Does Passive Smoke Exposure Trigger a False Positive for Marijuana?

Inhaling secondhand marijuana smoke is typically insufficient to trigger a false positive due to high lab concentration thresholds.

Urine abnormalities may suggest false negatives or sample tampering:

• Low creatinine indicates possible dilution through excessive fluid intake or added water.
• Creatinine combined with specific gravity checks for dilution; blue toilet water may prevent sample tampering.
• Enzymes added to the sample might alter pH, detectable in testing.

Drug Presence Duration in the Body

Detection periods for drugs vary based on factors like dosage, frequency, type, metabolism, fluid intake, physical activity, and genetic factors.
