Virginia Drug Testing

In Virginia, the most popular drug is marijuana, prescription medication and psychotherapeutic medications such as Xanax and Ativan. 30% of residents between the ages of 18 and 25 are far more likely to develop dependencies on these types of drugs while another 20% currently abuse alcohol.

Since 2016, the number of heroin and painkiller related deaths has risen with 882 people's lives claimed in 2016 alone. Like many other states in the US, Virginia has also been introduced to the growing terror that is fentanyl surpassing heroin and prescription drugs in 2017. With a population of over 8 million and some of the most beautiful national parks, such as Shenandoah, it is increasingly important for Virginia's residents to know where to seek drug and alcohol testing help.
