COMPLIANCE TESTING
URINE, ORAL FLUID, AND PLASMA TOXICOLOGY PANELS TO ASSESS COMPLIANCE
We offer a full menu of toxicology tests in three different matrices to
assess compliance with prescribed medications.
Our urine toxicology menu includes a comprehensive list of screening and
confirmation tests. Urine specimens will provide the best matrix for detecting prescription
and illicit drug use, with longer detection windows and higher drug concentrations, as well
as ease of collection. We take pride in our 1-day turn-around time for urine toxicology
reports.Our oral fluid toxicology menu offers an easy alternative to urine testing for
patients that are unable to produce a urine specimen. However, oral fluid detection windows
are much shorter than urine detection windows. It is important to understand the limitations
of this testing matrix. Oral fluid toxicology reports also have a 1-day turn-around time.
Our plasma toxicology menu offers steady state analysis and blood baseline
testing. Steady state analysis measures the amount of free drug in the blood, providing
insight into how much of the prescribed medications the patient is taking. Blood baseline
testing measures the amount of total drug in the blood, providing insight into medication
tolerance. Plasma reports are available within 5 business days..
