- Tried and True Method: There are years worth of experience behind urine drug testing as it has been the standard for of testing in schools, homes, jails, and workplaces for many years. For this reason, urine based testing is proven to be accurate and well understood.
- Reduced Costs: Urine based testing remains less expensive than that of many other types of drug testing testing. In addition, urine tests have consistently proven to be accurate, which also has a significant impact on the total expense.
- Fast Results: Urine tests are virtually instant, meaning that there is a far less time spent in evaluation than many other tests which may require lab testing to be proven accurate.
- Easy to Store and Long Shelf Life: Unlike other drug tests, urine tests can be put aside for a time without any likelihood of deterioration or damage from the length of storage.
- Detects As Many as 12 Drugs at a Time: Urine testing allows the test person to evaluate the sample for as many as 12 different drugs from the same sample. This isn’t always the case with other forms of testing which may only be able to test for a few different types.
- Minimally Invasive: Urine testing allows the subject to collect the sample themselves and then offer it for testing rather than it being collected directly from their body.
FDA Approved: The FDA has declared urine drug testing a safe and accurate form of drug testing for use in all locations where it is legal to conduct testing.
