Order 12 Panel Drug TestingThe 12 Panel Drug Profile is a urine-based laboratory test that screens for twelve distinct drug classes in a single specimen. It is commonly used when a broad, multi-substance overview is needed rather than a targeted analysis of one compound.
About 12 Panel Drug Testing in Ames
This profile groups twelve drug classes into one urine test, giving a wide view of recent substance exposure.
The panel covers 6-AM, a heroin metabolite, alongside amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cocaine, MDMA, THC, methadone, methaqualone, opiates, PCP, and propoxyphene. Grouping these analytes into one profile reduces the need for separate specimen collections when a general screen is appropriate.
Urine is the specimen type for this profile. Detection windows vary by substance and by how much was used, how often, and individual metabolism, so a result reflects a window of time rather than a single point. A laboratory report typically lists each drug class separately with a qualitative result.
Results are generally available within one to three business days. Specimen handling, chain-of-custody requirements, and any confirmatory testing are determined by the laboratory and the requesting party. Preparation is limited to following the lab's instructions.
