ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ’s new consensus document provides practical, evidence-based recommendations on the appropriate use of drug testing for the identification, diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of patients with or at risk for substance use disorders (SUDs).
Key Findings: Drug testing should be conducted at least weekly at the start of treatment, and at least monthly for patients in stable recovery; however, individual consideration may be given for less frequent testing
if a patient is in stable recovery. The document recommends that testing be performed on a random schedule, when possible.
