Why would I need this test?
The 10-Panel Urine Drug Test + Cotinine is commonly used to detect the presence of ten different drugs of abuse, along with cotinine, the primary metabolite of nicotine. This test is often required for: Pre-employment screenings, especially in workplaces that have strict no-tobacco policies or safety-sensitive positions. Health insurance screenings where non-smoking policies are in place. Monitoring individuals in smoking cessation programs or for personal health tracking. Legal or court-ordered testing for substance abuse and nicotine use verification. Post-accident testing where tobacco or drug use may be a factor.
Will over-the-counter or prescription medications affect the test results?
Yes, certain over-the-counter and prescription medications could affect the results of the drug test by causing false positives. Common substances that may interfere include: Decongestants and cold medications (containing pseudoephedrine) may trigger positives for amphetamines. Prescription pain medications such as codeine or hydrocodone may be detected as opiates. OTC sleep aids and antihistamines (such as diphenhydramine) can potentially affect results. For cotinine detection, the test specifically looks for nicotine use, so non-nicotine medications will not interfere with this portion of the test. However, nicotine replacement therapies (e.g., patches, gum, lozenges) will result in a positive for cotinine. It is important to disclose any medications or products you are using to the testing administrator.
How is the sample collected for the test?
The test requires a urine sample, and the collection process is straightforward: You will be provided with a sterile container and directed to a private restroom to provide a urine sample. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis to test for ten drug classes and the presence of cotinine. The collection process is simple and usually takes just a few minutes.
