Ordering Recommendation
Useful for general screening in contexts of compliance and/or abuse. For follow-up testing of a presumptive result, confirmatory testing by mass spectrometry is recommended. For automatic reflex testing on all presumptive positives, Drug Panel 7A, Urine - Screen with Reflex to Confirmation/Quantitation (0092185) is recommended.
This test does not distinguish between the delta-8 and delta-9 forms of THC or their metabolites.

Interpretive Data
This is a screening test only. False positive and false negative results can occur. Positive results are not automatically reflexed to a confirmatory test. Confirmation by GC/MS and/or LC-MS/MS must be requested separately. Confirmatory testing for drugs and/or drug classes detected by this screening test is recommended.
The absence of expected drug(s) and/or drug metabolite(s) may indicate non-compliance, inappropriate timing of specimen collection relative to drug administration, poor drug absorption, diluted/adulterated urine, or limitations of testing. The concentration at which the screening test can detect a drug or metabolite varies within a drug class. The concentration value must be greater than or equal to the cutoff to be reported as positive. Interpretive questions should be directed to the laboratory.
