VITROS Chemistry Products METD Reagent is used on VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems for the semi-quantitative or qualitative determination of methadone (METD) in human urine using a cutoff of either 150 ng/mL or 300 ng/mL. Measurements obtained with the VITROS METD method are used in the diagnosis and treatment of methadone use or overdose.

The VITROS Chemistry Products METD assay is intended for use by professional laboratory personnel. It provides only a preliminary test result. A more specific alternative chemical method must be used to confirm a result obtained with this assay. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug-of-abuse test result, particularly when evaluating a preliminary positive result.

For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 26 is used to calibrate VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems for the qualitative or semi-quantitative measurement of drugs of abuse.

For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products DAT Performance Verifiers are assayed controls used to monitor performance of urine drugs of abuse screening assays on VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
