10 Panel Drug Test

Same-day scheduling at 17,000 + locations l Confidential results

A 10 panel drug test is considered one of the most comprehensive drug screening options available today. It is specifically designed to detect a range of both common and less frequently abused substances, providing a more thorough assessment of an individual's drug use. This level of detail distinguishes it from the more limited 5 panel drug test, which only identifies marijuana, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines, and PCP.

The 10 panel test expands its scope by including benzodiazepines, barbiturates, methadone, propoxyphene, and Quaaludes (methaqualone). Such an expanded range is critical for identifying drug use that might otherwise go unnoticed in tests with narrower scopes. Because of this comprehensive coverage, the 10 panel test is highly regarded and widely used in various scenarios.

Employers often choose the 10 panel test when screening potential hires or conducting regular checks on current employees, especially in safety-sensitive industries. Its broad scope helps ensure that individuals responsible for critical tasks operate without impairment. As a result, it is often implemented as part of company policies to maintain a safe work environment.

In legal cases, particularly within the state of Santa Ynez Valley, CA, the 10 panel drug test is frequently utilized to provide a clearer picture of an individual's substance use. Courts may order this test in situations where understanding the breadth of drug use could influence legal decisions. Thus, it is a preferred option for attorneys and judges needing comprehensive evidence.

Individuals may also opt for a 10 panel drug test to evaluate their own drug use or that of a loved one. It can offer peace of mind, confirm suspicions, or support addiction recovery efforts. Given its accuracy and thoroughness, this drug test is a highly trusted option for anyone needing a detailed analysis of substance use.

*Methaqualone only available in urine lab-based testing

10 Panel Lab based vs. 10 Panel Instant Drug Test

Feature 10 Panel Lab-Based 10 Panel Instant (POCT)
Primary Use Employment, legal/court, policy-driven programs Rapid on-site screening; same-day hiring decisions
Specimen Urine (standard); hair/oral fluid/nail options Urine (most common)
Speed Negatives 1 business day after lab receipt; non-negatives 2-3 days with MRO Screen results in 5-10 minutes (presumptive)
Accuracy & Confirmation High; confirmatory GC/MS or LC-MS/MS on any non-negative Screening only; non-negatives should be lab-confirmed
MRO Review Yes (on non-negative lab results) Not by default; added when sending to lab
Chain of Custody (CCF) End-to-end documented Used for screen; lab CCF applies if sent for confirmation
Legal Defensibility Strong (SAMHSA-certified lab + confirmation + MRO) Limited until confirmed by a lab
Compliance Meets most employer/court policies; DOT uses lab-based 5-panel Great for rapid screens; policies often require confirmation for final action
Cost Profile Higher unit price; includes confirmation/MRO when needed Lower upfront; confirmation adds cost/time on non-negatives

Choose 10 panel Lab-Based If You Need:

  • Defensible results for employment, licensing, or court
  • MRO oversight to evaluate prescriptions and verify results
  • Audit-ready documentation with full Chain of Custody
  • Mass-spectrometry confirmation for any non-negative screen

Best for: pre-employment, randoms, return-to-duty/follow-up, post-accident (when policy requires confirmation), legal/custody cases.

Order 10 Panel Lab-Based

Choose Instant (POCT) If You Need:

  • Immediate screening at the point of collection
  • Faster hiring decisions with on-site programs
  • To screen first, confirm only if needed
  • Temporary removal from duty pending confirmation (policy-dependent)

Reminder: Instant results are presumptive. Confirm non-negatives at a SAMHSA-certified lab for final decisions.

Order 10 Panel Instant

10 Panel Drug Test Detection Times

Windows are driven by drug metabolism and specimen type, not whether testing is lab-based or instant. Urine is standard for both; alternative specimens are typically lab-based.

Specimen Typical Detection Window Best Use
Urine 1-7 days (THC up to 30) Employment, legal, personal
Hair Up to 90 days History/patterns of use
Oral Fluid (Saliva) 24-72 hours Recent use; post-accident/suspicion
Blood Hours to 2-3 days Very recent use
Nails 3-6 months Extended look-back

Compliance Notes

  • DOT programs require a lab-based 5-panel under 49 CFR Part 40 (not a 10 panel).
  • Many employer/court policies require lab confirmation + MRO review for final actions.
  • On-site instant testing may require appropriate CLIA credentials depending on device and state rules.

Quick overview: A 10 panel drug test screens for marijuana (THC), cocaine, opiates, amphetamines (incl. methamphetamine), PCP, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, methadone, propoxyphene, and Quaaludes (methaqualone*).
