Specialized
Drug Testing (Hair, Urine, Saliva)
The
purpose of drug testing is to determine
accurately the presence of drugs of abuse in urine,
hair, saliva or blood.
The price is affordable and it
will depend on the drug testing panel
required, the source of the sample and
the purpose of the testing.
We offer a variety of drug testing
including Instant Drug Screens using as
samples urine or saliva.
If necessary the specimen is sent
for laboratory confirmation.
In addition hair testing can also
be collected on site.
A brief consultation could be provided
to determine the most accurate and
effective method for drug collection,
many factors will be taking into
consideration.
All collections will require the
consent of the patient
or participant or the present and
consent of the guardian if a minor.
Results are typically reported in 24
hours for negatives, 48-72 hours for
positives.
All presumptive positive results
go through a confirmation process to
ensure accurate results.
Screening and confirmation
testing are performed using different
methodologies that require separate
cut-off levels.
Hair
Drug Testing

advantages over traditional drug
testing.
The advantages include a wider
window of detection (90 days), less
invasive and easier collection, and
virtual elimination of tampering with
the test.

(including ecstasy), PCP, and mariajuana.
Other opioids could be detected
with an extended opioid panel.
