Patient Instructions

You should fast for 12 hours before collection of the specimen. Some tests in this panel may exhibit interference when sample is collected from a person who is consuming a supplement with a high dose of biotin (also termed as vitamin B7 or B8, vitamin H or coenzyme R). The patient should collect the first 20-60 mL of voided urine (the first part of the stream-not midstream) into a urine collection cup. Collect the specimen in a sterile, preservative-free collection cup. Patient should be cautioned to stop biotin consumption at least 72 hours prior to the collection of a sample. Patient should not have urinated for at least 1 hour prior to specimen collection. If confirmation testing is required, the estimated time may be extended.

Estimated turnaround for results is 7 business days. If confirmation testing is required, the estimated time may be extended.
