Drug Panel

DRUG OF ABUSE PANEL 

This test looks for the presence of small molecules (metabolites) released during the breakdown of any of these ingested medicines. This test helps confirm the recent use of an abused medicine and has a role in diagnosis, treatment, and addiction monitoring. Also, it is done when you are suspected of misusing prescriptions or abusing banned medicines. Private employers or government agencies conduct this test as a condition of employment. This test is essential as clinical examination, patient self-reporting, or any reporting document may underestimate the actual frequency of substance use.
