Instant drug testing webinar recap

Two experts from Quest Diagnostics presented a webinar about the advantages and limitations of instant drug testing solutions. Our experts discussed scientific data, national trends in drug use, legal considerations and best practices to help you make more informed decisions regarding your workplace drug testing program.

Here are a few key points from the presentation:

• Consult an attorney before using instant, or rapid, drug testing services. Some states do not permit instant drug testing or may have specific requirements or limitations.
• Write a clear drug testing policy and choose solutions based upon your organization’s unique needs and reasons for drug testing.
• Always choose an instant drug testing device with FDA 510(k) clearance.
• Urine testing is a proven and widely accepted method for drug testing.
• Understand the cut-off levels for each drug test type – instant, urine, oral fluid and hair. Data indicates a significant difference in marijuana detection when comparing instant and lab-based oral fluid drug testing.
• Follow a consistent drug test collection protocol to help minimize the potential for adulteration or substitution. We offer free online drug testing specimen collection training to help increase your aptitude.
