## Indications for use
The LZI Carisoprodol Metabolite (Meprobamate) Enzyme Immunoassay is intended for the qualitative and semi-quantitative determination of carisoprodol metabolite (meprobamate) in human urine at a cutoff value of 100 ng/mL when calibrated against meprobamate. The assay is designed for prescription use with a number of automated clinical chemistry analyzers. The semi-quantitative mode is for purposes of enabling laboratories to determine an appropriate dilution of the specimen for verification by a confirmatory method such as GC/MS, LC/MS or permitting laboratories to establish quality control procedures. The assay provides only a preliminary analytical result. A more specific alternative chemical confirmatory method (e.g., gas or liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry) must be used to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Clinical consideration and professional judgment must be exercised with any drug of abuse test, particularly when the preliminary test result is positive.
