Drugs of Abuse Testing Market Scope
Drugs of Abuse Testing is a method to detect the drugs present in a human body with the help of saliva, urine, blood, and sweat. This testing compromise of devices by which we can check or measure the intake of drugs in a human body and can be conducted at home or in laboratories. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime 246 million people in the age group from 15 to 64 use drugs and according to a National Survey, 9.8 million people across the globe suffer from mental illness due to the consumption of high drugs. Drugs that are majorly causing the addiction are cocaine, heroin, and marijuana among others. Increasing consumption of drugs by adults coupled with rising illness due to the consumption of drugs is driving the market for drug abuse testing.
