| Collection Instructions: |
|
Drugs suspected and known medications should be indicated. The laboratory strongly favors direct communication between the primary physician and the laboratory. Since the drug screen is a search for the presence of an unknown drug, any drug-related patient history communicated to the laboratory will give the analyst a point of direction in the testing of the sample and help expedite return of results.
