Drug Confirmation Test

Drug Confirmation Testing

Are you looking for a drug confirmation testing service near you? Look no further than Ulta Lab Tests. We provide confidential and accurate drug testing services to individuals, businesses, and government organizations.

Drug Confirmation Testing is a crucial part of the drug-testing process. Drug confirmation testing helps to accurately identify and measure the presence of certain drugs in an individual's system. Drug confirmation tests are considered the second step in a two-step clinical process to detect drugs in a person's system. Drug confirmation tests use an advanced lab analysis to confirm that drugs have been ingested, with accuracy rates ranging from 80-100%. Drug Confirmation Testing allows organizations to make well-informed decisions on how to handle any positive results obtained from a drug screening test. It plays an important role in ensuring the safety and security of workers, customers, sports participants, and society at large.

Drug Monitoring, Panel 1, with Confirmation, Urine

Clinical Significance
Drug Monitoring, Panel 1, with Confirmation, Urine - The test is a screening assay using a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay method of analysis. Presumptive positive screen results are reflexed to a more specific and sensitive liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy (LC/MS/MS) test. Therapeutic urine drug monitoring 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. Urine drug test results equal to or greater than cutoff are reported as positive and results less than cutoff are reported as negative. Quantitative values cannot be used to assess the drug dose, because the drug is extensively metabolized and excreted in the urine.

Drug Monitoring, Alcohol Metabolite, with Confirmation, Urine

Clinical Significance
Drug Monitoring, Alcohol Metabolite, with Confirmation, Urine - Ethyl glucuronide and ethyl sulfate are metabolites of ethanol (alcohol) that may be present in urine after ingestion of, or exposure to, drinks, foods, medication or other products containing ethyl alcohol. Incidental exposure to alcohol-containing products such as mouthwash or hand sanitizer have also been shown to produce positive alcohol metabolites test results. LC-MS/MS testing detects EtG and EtS regardless of the source. Therefore, we encourage you to interpret alcohol metabolite test results in light of the clinical picture.

Drug Monitoring, Oxycodone, with Confirmation, Urine

Clinical Significance
Drug Monitoring, Oxycodone, with Confirmation, Urine - Oxycodone is a semisynthetic narcotic analgesic that is available in oral formulations, often in combination with other drugs such as acetaminophen, aspirin, phenacetin, and caffeine. The test is a screening assay using a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay method of analysis. Presumptive positive screening tests are reflexed to amore specific and sensitive liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy (LC/MS/MS) confirmation test. Therapeutic urine drug monitoring of oxycodone and its metabolite oxymorphone is important for ensuring compliance to treatment strategies, as well as ensuring non-diversion for illicit purposes 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. Urine drug test results equal to or greater than cutoff are reported as positive and results less than cutoff are reported as negative. Quantitative values cannot be used to assess the drug dose, because the drug is extensively metabolized and excreted in the urine.
