Fingernail drug testing facts

 WRONG Fingernail drug testing facts

1) The FDA has never approved the use of this test to detect drugs in food or beverages.

2) There is no scientific evidence that shows a positive result for any substance indicates an increased risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes or other serious health problems.

3) The test can't tell you if someone has used illegal drugs. It only tests for cocaine and marijuana. (And it doesn't distinguish between the two. So a test that comes up positive for coke can easily come up positive for weed too, or any other drug for that matter).

4) The test is not used by most food companies. Only by law enforcement and a few nonprofits that deal with drug use and the military.

5) There are several different types of tests that can be done. GC/MS is the type that can test for multiple drugs at once. It is used by the military and government agencies.

6) The test has a +/- range of +/- 90%... which means there is always a slight chance of a false positive or a negative result.

7) A commercial lab can do a GC/MS test, but you'll have to pay for it.

8) The lab MAY or MAY NOT report a positive or negative result.

9) If a result is reported, they may report only certain information. For example, only telling you if a certain substance is detected or not detected. They may or may not tell you how much is detected. This information is determined by the lab and Judge each situation independently.

10) The accuracy of the GC/MS test is determined by the calibration and proficiency of the lab.

11) The GC/MS test is NOT a drug test. It is only one piece of a larger drug testing puzzle. A complimentary tool, but not a replacement for others.

12) An alternative drug testing tool is the immuno-fluorescence drug test. It is able to detect metabolites (compounds formed when a drug is metabolized). These metabolites can indicate drug use in the past weeks or months and can have a slightly higher accuracy than GC/MS.

13) You may also be interested in the immuno-PCR drug test. This is a simple, but effective drug-testing technique that can detect many illegal drugs, including cocaine, marijuana, MDMA, PCP, opioids and more. It's an extremely accurate method of drug testing that doesn'trequire a lot of money or equipment, and it can be used at home.

14) There are also many online drug testing resources.

15) If you need help in a medical emergency, go to the nearest hospital. If you're in a life threatening situation, call 911.

16) If you need drug testing, contact a company that provides this type of service.

17) If you suspect someone is using drugs, you can comply with a drug test at your own risk. You're not likely to test positive for any drug unless you've recently used it. But it's always a good idea to consult with an attorney before refusing a drug test.

18) You have the right to refuse to take a drug test. But that refusal may result in your termination.

19) If you take a test and fail it, there are consequences. You can receive a negative result, a partial result or a false positive.

20) A negative result means you've never used the drugs listed on the test.

21) A partial result means you've used some, but not all of the listed drugs.
A false positive result means you've actually tested positive for a drug that was not detected.
A false negative result means you've actually tested negative for a drug that was actually present.

22) A random drug test can be positive for any or all of these drugs: Marijuana, Opiates, Cocaine, Methamphetamine, Barbiturates, Amphetamines, Pseudoephedrine, And more.

23) If you fail a surprise or unannounced drug test, you will likely be fired or suspended as soon as possible.

24) A positive drug test can result in many different consequences according to the specific situation.

25) A positive drug test can lead to a dismissal from your job, a termination of your contract, a loss of your professional license, demotion, a reduction in pay, mandatory treatment, a fine, jail time, etc.

26) If you test positive for a drug at your job, you may also be forced to take a drug prevention course.

27) If you test positive for a drug at school or somewhere else, you can face similar consequences.

28) Depending on the drug and your state, you can be charged with a drug crime. For example, possessing  1  Marijuana joint could lead to a criminal possession charge. Having 5 or less  Methamphetamine pills in your possession could lead to a criminal possession charge. Having 5 or less Benzoyle thiophenedine pills in your possession could lead to an illegal possession charge. Other drugs can have similar criminal possession charges.

29) If you test positive for a drug in Tennessee and your driving ability is affected, you can be charged with a DUI.

30) In some states, you can be charged with a drug-related crime even if the drug is not listed on the test.

31) In some states, a positive drug test can result in a civil citation. For example, having 5 or less Marijuana plant leaves in your possession could result in a civil possession charge.

32) In some states, a positive drug test can result in legal action. For example, having 5 or less Opiates in your system could result in a drug possession charge.

33) In some states, a positive drug test can result in automatic expulsion from an institution of higher learning.

34) In some states, a positive drug test can result in denial of certain professional licenses. For example, being convicted of a drug offense can prevent you from becoming an accountant, doctor or other licensed professional.

35) In some states, a positive drug test for a minor can result in legal action. For example, having 5 or less Marijuana in your possession could result in a criminal possession charge.

36) In some states, a positive drug test for a minor can result in a child endangerment charge. For example, having 5 or less Marijuana in your possession while a minor is around could result in a criminal possession charge.

38) In some states, a positive drug test for a minor can result in community service. For example, having 5 or less Marijuana in your possession could result in a community service program being required.

39) In some states, a positive drug test for a minor can result in a scholarship being taken away. For example, having 5 or less Marijuana in your possession could result in your scholarship being taken away.

40) In some states, a positive drug test for a minor can result in a minor criminal record. For example, having 5 or less Marijuana in your possession could result in a criminal charge.
