Addiction rehabilitation Addiction rehabilitation
Addiction rehabilitation 

Our approach to urine drug testing for individuals in need of addiction rehabilitation testing aligns with the American Society of Addiction Medicine’s national consensus statement recommending urine drug testing to identify the presence of prescribed and approved medication taken as part of addiction recovery therapy, as well as illicit substances most commonly abused.

Clinical and forensic toxicology Clinical and forensic toxicology
Clinical and forensic toxicology

Our evaluations align with evidence-based clinical laboratory guidelines and use advanced and emerging technologies, including liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GS/MS), to deliver accurate, actionable results that clarify substance use for improved outcomes.

Confirmatory testing Confirmatory testing
Confirmatory testing

Our approach to confirmatory testing gives providers the flexibility to perform immunoassays locally while enabling confidence through definitive testing that ensures optimal patient care.

Controlled substance monitoring Controlled substance monitoring
Controlled substance monitoring

We offer the industry’s most comprehensive, evidence-based urine drug testing menu, which was developed to be consistent with practice guidelines and help clinicians identify specific prescription drugs, adulterants, and illicit substances.

Drug class testing Drug class testing
Drug class testing

We offer a complete menu of advanced, expert-developed assays to detect for parent drugs and metabolites of specific drug classes. Including testing for benzodiazepines, opioids, stimulants, marijuana, and ethanol, our assays provide results that clarify and confirm drug use.

Precision therapeutics Precision therapeutics
Precision therapeutics

Precision therapeutics, or the use of PGx testing in conjunction with therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), has the potential to revolutionize medication selection and prescription monitoring. Our TDM and PGx evaluations increase understanding of an individual’s genetic makeup and personalize dosing decisions.

Result interpretation Result interpretation
Result interpretation

Our recommended approach to urine drug testing takes the guesswork out of results interpretations. Our approach uses a combination of specimen validity testing, immunoassays, and targeted screens with interpretations that enable accurate interpretation of controlled substance monitoring test results.

Therapeutics testing overview

We have access to hundreds of assays to identify and monitor both prescribed and illicit drug use. Our cutting-edge evaluations use advanced and emerging technologies, including liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GS/MS), to deliver accurate, actionable results that clarify substance use for improved outcomes.

When you partner with Mayo Clinic Laboratories, you extend your network to include some of the world’s leading experts. Mayo Clinic clinicians, laboratorians, and genetic counselors are available to discuss testing options, interpret results, or help with case review and coordination.
