Drugs are detected in the body by taking
samples of urine, saliva, breath air, hair, blood, sweat and body fluids. There is a ten panel drug test that is used
to detect certain drugs. Those drugs
are: Cocaine, Methadone, propoxyphene, Tricyclic antidepressants, Synthetic
cannabinoids, Phencyclidine, Opiates, Methaqualone, Cannabinoids, Amphetamines,
Buprenorphine, and Barbiturates.
I
thought it was interesting that scape hair testing can detect drugs for a
period of 30 to 90 days but body hair can detect drugs in a period of up to a
year because it grows at a slower rate.
Cocaine can be detected in the urine 2 to 5 days except for heavy users
it can be detected 7 to 10 days. It can
be detected up to 90 days in the hair and 2 to 10 days in the blood. Cannabis
can be detected in the urine for up to 3 to 4 days and heavy users up to 10
days. It’s detected in the hair for up
to 90 days and in the blood 2 to 3 days and 2 weeks for heavy users.
