Instant Urine (POCT) Tests

An instant drug test is exactly what it sounds like; negative results are available right away, at the point where it’s collected, usually within a few minutes.

POCT = Point of Collection Test.

Also known as an immunoassay screening, the result is either negative (it’s not present) or non-negative (needs further testing). We never consider a non-negative instant drug as a “positive” result.

Any non-negative specimens are sent to a lab for confirmation, and, if positive, reviewed by our MRO.

Instant or rapid drug tests are an effective way to get quick negative results.
