Alcohol/EtG Testing

US Drug Test Centers is one of the very few places to offer both alcohol and EtG urine and hair drug testing. These panels are most commonly used for legal purposes, which makes choosing a credited company to help with your testing important! We also offer breath alcohol testing for companies that are a part of the DOT (Department of Transportation) or NON-DOT companies that would like to perform random or reasonable suspicion alcohol testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ
What type of drug test should I choose?

US Drug Test Centers offers urine & hair drug and alcohol testing and breath alcohol testing. A urine test will generally test for drugs in your system the past 3-5 days. A hair test will normally test back up to 90 days. A breath alcohol testing will test for current impairment.

When will I get my drug test results?

US Drug Test Centers offers instant and lab based testing options. If you choose an instant urine drug test, all negative results are reported the same day. Most lab based urine tests will be emailed to you in 2-4 days. Most hair test results are emailed to the donor within 4-7 days. Breath alcohol test results are available the same day.

What is an observed drug test?

A direct observation is performed when a collected specimen falls outside the acceptable temperature range. Additionally, direct observation is warranted if there are signs that the specimen may have been tampered with or if there are specific indications of an attempt to alter the specimen. Furthermore, all Department of Transportation (DOT) drug tests categorized as return to duty or follow-up must be conducted under direct observation.

What does a "negative dilute" result mean?

When a drug test result is returned indicating "Negative Dilute," it signifies that the laboratory analysis of the specimen yielded a negative outcome. However, the specific gravity and creatinine levels of this specimen are abnormal, suggesting that the urine is diluted. It is important to note that this result does not constitute a positive finding, a refusal, or a breach of drug testing protocols.
