UA Drug Test Kits and Drug Testing Supplies

 

A drug test is a device that can detect the presence of a drug or a number of drugs or their metabolized traces within human tissue or fluids.  Drug tests can be divided into two general groups, federally and non-federally regulated testing.  Federal drug testing guidelines and processes are established and regulated (by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration or SAMHSA, formerly under the direction of the National Institute on Drug Abuse or NIDA) require that companies who use professional drivers, specified safety sensitive transportation and/or oil and gas related occupations, and certain federal employers, test them for the presence of certain drugs.  These test classes were established decades ago, and include five specific drug groups.  Drugs currently required for testing by NIDA are referred to as the NIDA 5 drug test. SAMHSA / DOT tests currently exclude semi-synthetic opioids, such as oxycodone, oxymorphone, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, etc., and other prescription medications that are widely abused in the United States.

When it comes to non-federally regulated testing, there are many different kinds of drug tests. With the increase of drug usage and abuse in America over the years, drug testing has increased as well, leading to a need for more drug testing information. Many people think that you have to go to a doctor’s office or clinic to test for drugs. However, practically every drug test can be purchased in the form of a home drug test kit, allowing you to buy drug test kits and perform a simple drug test from the comfort and convenience of your home.  The most popular forms of drug tests are UA Tests and Alcohol UA (UA is short for "urine analysis".  UA Testing is the most popular and proven way to detect drugs in human urine.  When it comes to UA Tests, you will not find better tests or a better selection of drug tests than those offered by Transmetron!

 

What Is Drug Testing? How Do Drug Tests Work?

Best Selling Drug Tests:

Drug Testing is the examination of human tissue or fluid samples to determine the presence or absence of specified drugs or their metabolized traces.  See also, How To Use A Drug Test.

5 Panel Drug Test Dip

5 Panel Drug Test

This is a dip strip drug test that detects 5 different drugs at one time, a 5 panel drug test (5 drug assay).  We also offer a wide range of multi panel drug tests that will test from 2 to 12 drugs.

Why Is Drug Testing Performed?

 

Drug testing is performed for a number of reasons. The main reason is to ensure safety in the workplace. Drug tests used at homes and in schools help to protect our kids. Drug testing is just another way to combat drug usage and happens to be quite effective. If a drug dealer is on probation and fails a drug test, he or she can be put back in jail so that there will be one less drug dealer on the streets.

Marijuana THC Drug Test Dip

THC - Marijuana Drug Test

This is a dip strip drug test that detects one drug at a time, a single panel drug test (1 drug assay).  Here, we show a cannabis drug test to test for marijuana (THC drug testing).

What Are The Common Types of Drug Tests?

 

There are 5 different common types of drug tests. They are as follows:

Urine Test Kits: Detect the presence or absence of drugs and their metabolites in urine samples.  These tests are often referred to as a UA test.

Saliva Drug Test: Detects the presence or absence of drugs and their metabolites in saliva samples.

Alcohol Drug Test: Detects the presence or absence of alcohol and its metabolite in urine, saliva or blood samples.  These tests are sometimes called an alcohol UA and breath alcohol test.

Hair Drug Test: Detects the presence or absence of drugs incased in a shaft of human hair or follicle.

Sweat Drug Test: Detects the presence of drugs through a sweat sample, most often using what is called a sweat patch.

OrAlert - Oral Saliva Drug Test

OrAlert - Oral Saliva Drug Test

E-Z Split Key Integrated Drug Test Cup

E-Z Split Key Integrated Drug Test Cup

This is an integrated drug cup.  Here, the drug test is integrated or built into the cup.  This is an Easy To Use - Easy To Read drug test! 

Drug abuse is a major problem not only in the United States, but around the world and has indeed become a world wide epidemic!  Now, to the rescue, comes the instant drug test kit!  Whatever may be the type of drug test, they help with the detection of drugs, which in turn forms the basis for a person returning to leading a drug free life.  These tests can be done in total privacy and give extremely accurate results.  Drug tests are a realistic and affordable possibility these days with the availability of discount drug testing kits.

Various types of tests such as urine drug test, saliva drug test and hair follicle drug test are administered in order to detect drug abuse. Among the most commonly used tests is the urine test and you can find many urine drug testing kits available at a wide range of pharmacies these days.  The drawbacks of purchasing from a pharmacy is twofold.  First, their test kits are extremely expensive (a single panel THC drug test will cost $13 or more each!  Whereas, we only charge $2.95 for a single THC Drug Test).  And, we have the Guaranteed Lowest Prices on the internet!   Second, pharmacies have a very limited selection of tests.  Typically a local drugstore will only carry about 3 or 4 different types of drug tests.  Whereas, we carry perhaps the largest selection of drug test kits on the internet today.  With this large selection of drug tests, you can find out the presence or absence of nearly any specific drug. One of the major advantages with the urine drug testing kits is that up to 12 different drugs can be detected using a single drug test kit.  With this all inclusive drug test kit, you can rest positive knowing if they are clean and drug free.

In many instances saliva drug test kits are used as a non-invasive way to drug test employees, family members and even self drug testing. This drug test for saliva works by detecting traces of certain drugs found in a person’s mouth, specifically in the saliva, sometimes call spit. This test is often referred to as the spit test or mouth swab drug test.  The results of saliva tests are almost always reliable with no known adulterants and it is therefore a method that is used extensively for drug tests. A saliva drug test is also easy to conduct and allows for the detection of six different types of drugs. These now come in two different configurations, one testing for cocaine, amphetamines, methamphetamines, opiates, marijuana and phencyclidine.  The new OrAlert test replaces the PCP with benzodiazepines.  The oral saliva drug test can be done almost anywhere and in total privacy, making it among the preferred methods of drug testing.

Similarly you can find many hair follicle drug testing kits that can help with detection of certain drugs. Hair follicles are known to store traces of drugs for a fairly long period of time (much longer than urine or saliva tests). Using this method one can find out a lot of details about a particular person’s drug abuse history.

These days you can also find spray drug testing kits being sold at online stores. These drug tests are perhaps the easiest to conduct as far as self drug tests go. Another reason for the popularity of spray drug tests is that the results are very accurate and are difficult to manipulate.

Most of the drug testing kits that are available these days are easy to use. The list of drugs that can be detected using them include opiates, cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamines, amphetamines and benzodiazepines to mention only a few. There are also a wide range of testing kits that can be used for detecting smoke and alcohol.  We offer the smoker’s nicotine test and two types of alcohol tests breath alcohol and saliva alcohol tests.    These tests are a great resource for and especially in the case of minors. Many a times an anxious parent wants to know whether their child is under the influence of drugs, administering these easy to use drug tests on their child is the best way they can find out about his or her drug habit.  We provide an extensive list of drug test resources for parents.
