“Rapid Drug Screen” 5-panel with cocaine, marijuana, opiates, amphetamine and methamphetamine is a lateral flow immunoassay for the simulatenous detection in urine of five abused drugs at stated detectable limits. (Each assay occupies a seperate channel). It is intended for use in the qualitative detection of d-Amphetamine (1000 ng/ml), Benzoyl ecgonine (300 ng/ml), Cannabinoids (50 ng/ml), Methamphetamines (1000 ng/ml) and Opiates (300 ng/ml).
“Rapid Drug Screen” is intended for professional use. It is not intended for over the counter sale to non-professionals. The assays are easy to perform, but should not be used without proper supervision. These immuno-assays are simplified qualatative screening methods that provides only a preliminary result for use in the need for aditional or confirmatory testing, i.e., gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS).
“Rapid Drug Screen” provides only a preliminary analytical test result. A more specific alternate chemical method must be used to obtain a more confirmed analytical result. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical and professional judgement should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particulary when preliminary positive results are used.
“Rapid Drug Screen” is not intended as a point of care test.
