About: Urine Drug Screen


A urine drug screen is designed to detect illegal (and some prescription) drugs in the urine.

How the Test is Performed

It is necessary to collect a "clean-catch" (midstream) urine sample.
As you start to urinate, allow a small amount to fall into the toilet bowl (this clears the urethra of contaminants). Then, in a clean container, catch about 1 - 2 ounces of urine and remove the container from the urine stream. Give the container to the health care provider or assistant.
You may be asked to remove all your personal belongings. You will then be placed in a room where you have no access to your personal items or water. In this environment, you cannot dilute the sample, nor can you use someone else's urine for the test.
If the sample tests positive the sample is then taken to the laboratory for evaluation.

How the Test Will Feel

The test involves only normal urination.

Why the Test is Performed

The test is performed to detect the presence of illegal (and some prescription) drugs in your urine, which indicates recent use of the drugs.

Normal Results

No drugs in the urine.

What Abnormal Results Mean

If the test result is positive, it is helpful to confirm it with gas-chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). In some cases, a test will register a false positive. This can result from interfering factors such as some foods, prescription medications, and other drugs.
The GC-MS will help tell the difference between a false positive or a true positive, resulting from the presence of an illegal drug.

  5. The easiest and safest way to pass a Drug Test is to stay away from them. Over consumption of drugs is very injurious to health and can be life-threatening. So in order to save yourself from the ill effects of drugs, you should avoid them completely. If you are informed about the date of the drug test then it is better to stop taking them at least 72 hours before the test is performed.
