Urine test to detect recent exposure to six drugs/drug classes.
This urine test checks for recent exposure to amphetamines, benzodiazepines, marijuana, cocaine, certain opiates, and oxycodone. Any specimen that initially tests positive will be confirmed before the result is reported. The test detects the presence of specific drugs and/or drug metabolites in a urine sample. Results are generally available in a few business days, but processing times may vary. An alert call from an independent healthcare coordinator may be received if results differ from expected ranges. Independent physicians are available to discuss questions or concerns.
