What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're needing to verify cocaine use or confirm compliance with a treatment or monitoring program. It's also useful if you have concerns about a loved one's drug use, or need documentation for workplace, legal, or recovery program requirements. The test detects benzoylecgonine, the main breakdown product of cocaine, in a urine sample.

What's included in this test?

This test looks for benzoylecgonine, the metabolite your body produces after using cocaine, which stays detectable in urine longer than the drug itself. It starts with a quick screening method, and any positive result is automatically double-checked with a more advanced lab technique for accuracy. This two-step process helps avoid mistaken results from other substances that might otherwise trigger a false positive.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account as either positive or negative, with an explanation of what the cutoff level means and how the test works. If your screen comes back positive, it's automatically confirmed with a more precise lab method to reduce false positives before it's finalized. You can download a standard lab report anytime from your account, and if you're monitoring compliance over time, the trends feature lets you track multiple test dates in one place.

How can I naturally support recovery after stopping cocaine use?

Staying well hydrated, eating balanced meals, and getting consistent sleep can help your body recover and may support faster clearance of substances from your system. Regular light exercise and stress-reduction habits like walking or breathing exercises can also help with mood and cravings during this period. If you're in a recovery program, sticking to your outlined plan and attending support sessions consistently gives the best results over time.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your sample being processed at the lab. If your initial screen is positive, the confirmation testing step may add a little extra time since it uses a more detailed lab method. You'll get a notification as soon as your results are posted to your account.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good fit for anyone in a monitored treatment or recovery program who needs to document compliance, as well as employers, legal representatives, or family members who need objective verification of recent cocaine use. It's also useful for people managing prescription pain treatment who need routine drug monitoring for safety and accountability.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Signs like unexplained mood swings, unusual energy spikes followed by crashes, changes in appetite or sleep, or financial or behavioral changes can sometimes point to stimulant use. If you or someone you know is showing these patterns alongside known risk factors, testing can provide clear answers instead of guesswork. This test is also routinely used even without symptoms, simply as part of scheduled compliance monitoring.

What does a positive result mean?

A positive result means benzoylecgonine was found at or above the cutoff level, which typically indicates cocaine use within the past few days. Because the drug is broken down and cleared differently in every person, a positive result doesn't tell you the exact amount used or exactly when. If you're in a monitoring program, a positive result is usually a signal to review your treatment plan and discuss next steps with the program right away.

How often should I retest?

Retesting frequency depends on the reason you're testing—compliance programs often require testing on a regular schedule, such as weekly or monthly, while one-time verification only needs a single test. If you're tracking recovery progress, more frequent testing in the early weeks followed by spacing out over time can help confirm sustained abstinence. Check your specific program's guidelines for the exact schedule that applies to you.

What should I do if my results are abnormal?

If your result comes back positive, review it alongside any treatment or monitoring plan you're following, since this may affect program compliance or next steps. Consider reaching out to a substance use support service if you're trying to stop use, as they can offer resources tailored to your situation. If there are severe symptoms of overdose or medical distress at any point, seek emergency medical care right away.
