Kentucky, the bluegrass state has been hit by a growing epidemic. Heroin has been an issue in Kentucky; recently Fentanyl has posed even larger problems. Classified as a schedule II narcotic, Fentanyl is 50 times more addictive than heroin. Cities in Kentucky including Louisville and Lexington have been it the hardest. Kentucky is in the top ten states for opioid addiction and related overdoses. High rates of drug use hurt the entire community. US Drug Test Center offers online drug test information and resources for you or someone you know.
Kentucky employers have the right to enforce a drug free workplace to ensure productivity and safety.

Employers may also request an alcohol test upon initial employment or for the reasons listed previously. US Drug Test Centers makes this easy. In some situations, same day testing may be available for employers and individuals seeking testing.
