Saliva drug testing kits that screen for multiple drugs

Saliva drug test kits that screen for multiple drugs quickly and accurately. Screen easily on site for between 4 and 13 drugs on one oral fluid mouth swab drug test kit. 

An oral fluid drug screen, also known as a saliva drug test, is a method of testing for the presence of drugs in a person’s system using a sample of oral fluid also known as saliva. It is commonly used in workplace drug testing, roadside checks, or other scenarios where non-invasive, quick, and relatively simple drug testing is required. 

Sample collection is with a mouth swab:

A small swab or absorbent pad is placed in the mouth, often between the cheek and gums or under the tongue, to collect the oral fluid. The swab also needs to be thoroughly wiped around the oral cavity to pick up any drug residues that are in the mouth. This is particularly important in the case of THC detection in oral fluid, as the drug test kit detects the parent compound of Cannabis in the oral fluid. This type of drug test is often referred to as a mouth swab drug test.

The more drugs that you are testing for, the bigger the oral fluid sample that is required to be collected by the mouth swab. You may have to get the individual who is being drug tested to swab the oral cavity several times, to collect enough saliva and oral fluid, to run all the tests on some of the large drug test panels.

How an oral fluid drug screen works:

Drugs that can be detected on an oral fluid drug screening test:

Detection window of drugs in oral fluid

Oral fluid drug tests are particularly good at detecting recent drug use, usually within the past few hours to 48 hours, depending on the substance.

Advantages of an oral fluid drug screen:

  • Non-invasive: No need for blood draws or urine collection.
  • Quick results: Rapid oral flyuid tests provide results within minutes.
  • Hard to tamper with: It's difficult for a person to interfere with or adulterate a saliva sample.

Disadvantages of an oral fluid drug screen:

  • Shorter detection period compared to urine or hair testing. This shorter detection time can be an advantage in workplace drug screening.
  • May be less effective at detecting certain drugs or long-term use for example it is less efficient at detecting Cannabis use than urine.

How accurate are saliva drug tests?

Saliva drug tests are highly accurate when used correctly. UK Drug Testing kits are CE marked and designed to deliver reliable results within minutes. For confirmation of positive results in a workplace setting, a laboratory drug test is recommended.

Saliva drug tests typically detect recent drug use, usually within the last 24–48 hours, depending on the substance. This makes them ideal for identifying current impairment.

What should be done if an onsite workplace drug test result is positive?

In the event of a positive result on a workplace drug test, it's advisable to send the sample to a certified UKAS accredited laboratory for confirmatory drug testing to rule out any potential false positives.

Can prescription medications affect the drug test results?

Yes, certain prescription or over-the-counter medications may cause false-positive results. It's crucial to take a list of any prescription or over the counter medications an individual is taking to accurately interpret the results of the drug test.

How should the drug test kits be stored?

Store the test kits in a cool, dry place between 2°C and 30°C. Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight, moisture, or excessive heat to maintain their effectiveness.

How should I interpret faint lines on the test?

A faint line in the test region indicates a negative result for that specific substance. The intensity of the line does not correlate with the concentration of the drug. More information on interpreting faint lines on a drug test here

How long does it take to get results?

The drug test kit delivers results in approximately 5 minutes, making it suitable for on-site workplace screening.

Are saliva tests more convenient than urine tests?

Yes, saliva drug testing is less invasive, easier to supervise, and can be done without the need for private bathroom facilities.

Is a positive saliva test result conclusive?

While saliva drug tests are very accurate, a positive result should ideally be confirmed with a laboratory analysis, especially for workplace or legal use.

Do I need any training to use the drug test kit?

No specialist training is needed. Each test comes with full instructions, and our customer support team is available if you have any questions. If you would like to have training, we do offer this service.
