What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're needing to confirm recent barbiturate use, whether for workplace requirements, legal purposes, or personal peace of mind. Barbiturates are sedative drugs that can impair judgment, coordination, and breathing when misused. Oral fluid testing offers a quick, non-invasive way to detect recent use, since these drugs show up in saliva soon after exposure.

How should I prepare for this test?

See the pre-collection instructions on your order confirmation.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will be available in your account, with each value explained so you understand what a positive or negative result means. If your result is positive and unexpected, consider retesting or reviewing any recent medications that could affect the outcome. A standard lab report is available for download from your account at any time. You can also track results over time using the trends feature if you test more than once.

What is barbiturate testing and why does it matter?

Barbiturates are a class of sedative drugs once widely prescribed for anxiety and sleep, now mostly replaced by safer alternatives due to their high risk of overdose and dependence. This test checks oral fluid for the presence of these substances and any metabolites, which are byproducts left behind after the body processes the drug. Confirmation testing is included to reduce false positives, making the result more reliable for decisions that matter, like employment or safety screening.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your sample being processed at the lab. You'll get a notification once they're posted to your account, so there's no need to check repeatedly. Confirmation testing, which is included here, can take a bit longer than a basic screen but provides much more accurate results.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good fit for anyone who needs to verify recent barbiturate use, including employers running workplace drug programs, individuals in recovery monitoring programs, or people who simply want documented confirmation for personal or legal reasons. It's also useful if you've been prescribed a barbiturate-based medication and want to confirm proper use. Oral fluid makes the collection process simple and less invasive than blood or urine.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Signs of barbiturate use or misuse can include unusual drowsiness, slurred speech, poor coordination, confusion, or slowed breathing. If someone shows these symptoms and drug use is suspected, this test can help confirm what's going on. It's also relevant if there's a documented history of prescription sedative use that needs verification.

What does a positive result mean?

A positive result means barbiturates or their metabolites were detected in the oral fluid sample, indicating recent use, typically within the past day or two given the shorter detection window of saliva testing. This could reflect prescribed medication use or unauthorized use, depending on the context. If the result is unexpected, consider retesting or reviewing recent medication history to understand why it appeared.

How often should I retest?

Retesting frequency depends on why you're testing in the first place. For workplace or monitoring programs, follow the schedule set by that program, often periodic random testing. For personal verification, a single test is usually enough unless there's a specific reason to check again, such as a recent change in medication or suspected use.

What should I do if my results are abnormal?

If your result is positive and unexpected, start by reviewing any medications or supplements you've taken recently, since some substances can cause cross-reactivity. Consider a retest to confirm the finding, especially if the result could affect employment or legal matters. If there are signs of severe impairment or overdose, seek medical care immediately rather than waiting on test results.
