“Rapid Drug Screen” 3-Panel Test for Cocaine, THC and Opiates is a one-step, lateral flow immunoassay for the simultaneous detection in urine of three abused drugs at stated detectable limits. (Each assay occupies a separate channel). It is intended for use in the qualitative detection of Cocaine (Benzoyl ecgonine), 300 ng/ml, THC (Cannabinoids), 50 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 qualitative screening methods that provide only a preliminary result for use in the need for additional 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 judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are used.

“Rapid Drug Screen” is not intended for use as a Point of Care test.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
