When and Why the 10 Panel Drug Test May Be Ordered

The 10 Panel Drug Test may be ordered in a variety of situations:

1. Employment Screening: Many companies mandate drug tests before hiring to ensure a safe workplace and ensure that potential employees do not engage in illicit drug use.

2. Legal and Forensic Applications: Courts may order drug testing for individuals on probation or involved in child custody cases. The results could influence the decisions made by the judiciary.

3. Medical Evaluations: In emergency situations, especially with unconscious patients or those unable to provide an accurate medical history, the panel can guide healthcare professionals in providing appropriate care.

4. Rehabilitation Monitoring: For individuals in drug rehabilitation programs, routine testing ensures they remain abstinent from drug use.

5. Sports and Athletics: Athletes may undergo drug testing to detect performance-enhancing drugs or substances that may give them an unfair advantage.

What the 10 Panel Drug Test Checks For

The 10 Panel Drug Test checks for a variety of substances:

• Amphetamine & Methamphetamines: Stimulants often used recreationally and also found in certain medications.

• Marijuana Metabolite: Indicates cannabis use.

• Benzoylecgonine: A primary metabolite of cocaine.

• Opiates: A group that includes drugs like heroin, morphine, and certain prescription pain relievers.

• Phencyclidine (PCP): A hallucinogenic drug.

• Barbiturates: Including Amobarbital, Butalbital, Pentobarbital, Secobarbital, and Phenobarbital, which are central nervous system depressants.

• Benzodiazepines: This includes Alphahydroxyalprazolam, Alphahydroxymidazolam, Alphahydroxytriazolam, Aminoclonazepam, Hydroxyethylflurazepam, Lorazepam, Nordiazepam, Oxazepam, and Temazepam. These are medications typically prescribed for anxiety, seizures, or insomnia.

• EDDP: A metabolite of methadone, which is used for pain relief and as a part of drug addiction detoxification.

• Methadone: An opioid used for opioid maintenance therapy and chronic pain management.

• Norpropoxyphene: A metabolite of the analgesic drug propoxyphene.

The inclusion of these substances ensures a broad assessment of drug use or misuse, encompassing both illegal substances and the potential misuse of prescription medications.
