What to Expect During Your Appointment

Most Drug Screening results are reported as negative or positive. A medical review officer (MRO) may contact you if a prescription medication could explain a positive result. Confidentiality is strictly maintained throughout the process.

Understanding Your Results

Once your Drug Screening results are ready, you will receive a detailed report showing your values alongside reference ranges. It is important to review your results with a licensed healthcare provider who can interpret them in the context of your overall health history, symptoms, and any medications you are taking.

If results fall outside normal ranges, your doctor may recommend follow-up testing, lifestyle changes, or treatment. For normal results, your provider can advise on appropriate screening intervals based on your age, risk factors, and health goals.
