6-Panel Drug Test
The 6-Panel Drug Test extends the 5-Panel Test by adding one more substance: benzodiazepines. This group includes prescription drugs such as Xanax, Valium, and Ativan, which are often abused for their calming effects. The 6-Panel Test detects marijuana (THC), cocaine, opiates, amphetamines, phencyclidine (PCP), and benzodiazepines. This test offers an extended window into potential substance abuse.
Expanded Screening for Enhanced Drug Detection
In addition to the substances covered in the 5-Panel Test, the 6-Panel Drug Test also detects benzodiazepines. These medications, often abused for their sedative effects, are included to offer a more comprehensive drug screening solution.
The inclusion of benzodiazepines allows the 6-Panel Drug Test to detect prescription medication misuse, making it a great choice for workplaces where prescription drug use is a concern.
With its extended coverage, the 6-Panel Test provides a broader detection range, making it ideal for environments that require monitoring for both illicit and prescribed drug use.
This test is commonly used in medical settings, where healthcare professionals need to understand a patient’s substance use habits for treatment planning and management of care.
Employers and legal entities use the 6-Panel Drug Test to ensure that their employees or clients are free from drugs that could impair performance or decision-making, creating safer work and legal environments.
