Opiates Urine Drug Test

The Opiates Expanded Urine Drug Test quantifies multiple opiate compounds and metabolites—including codeine, hydrocodone, morphine, oxycodone, and others—in urine using LC/MS/MS. This expanded quantitative assay gives precise concentration values across a broader range of opiates, enabling clinicians and monitoring programs to evaluate compliance, detect illicit use, and monitor trends in opioid exposure.

Drug Monitoring, Opiates Expanded, Quantitative, Urine - Opiates possess exceptional analgesic properties and have become the mainstay of pain management therapies. Being both psychologically and physically addictive, the monitoring of opiate use and abuse is a major component of any treatment program. The test is a definitive assay using liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy (LC/MS/MS) methodology. Therapeutic urine drug monitoring of the opiates is important for ensuring compliance to treatment strategies, as well as ensuring non-diversion for illicit purposes. Urine or oral fluid are the specimens of choice for routine monitoring of patients taking prescription drugs. Use of serum/plasma should be limited to anuretic patients, or where a patient's clinical appearance does not coincide with their prescribed medications. No single monitoring approach provides adequate information about the pattern or dose of patient drug use. Safest prescribing habits should include a combination of tools and laboratory test results to correctly detect drug use patterns. Quantitative values cannot be used to assess the drug dose, because the drug is extensively metabolized and excreted in the urine.

If you require medMATCH for this order code, you must also order code 39158 - Prescribed Drugs, medMATCH®. If 39158 is ordered, all Drug Monitoring order codes will be treated as medMATCH.

If this test code is not ordered with 39158, all medMATCH result codes will be DNR’d.
