About Drug Abuse Testing
Drug abuse is the deliberate consumption of an illegal drug or overindulgence of a prescribed psychoactive or performance-enhancing drug for non-therapeutic, non-medicinal use/effects. Addicted individuals have uncontrollable, irresistible, and compulsive desire and persistence in its use despite negative consequences. Drug abuse test is a non-invasive technical analysis of biological samples. There are a number of ways this can be done, including pre-employment testing, random testing, reasonable suspicion/cause testing, post-accident testing, return to duty testing and follow-up testing. This usually involves collecting urine samples to test for drugs such as marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines, PCP, and opiates.
