Designer Stimulant Drug Testing

DETECT SYNTHETIC STIMULANT SUBSTANCES FOUND IN
"BATH SALTS", "PLANT FOOD" OR DISGUISED AS MDMA.


Synthetic Cannabinoid Product

Synthetic stimulants are produced in clandestine labs, and sold online or available at smoke shops. Promoted as "bath salts," "research chemicals," or "plant food," product labeling attempts to circumvent regulation by suggesting they are not for human consumption. Additionally, some forms of designer stimulants may be sold as "legal" MDMA (Legal X), or sold and veiled as MDMA tablets.

U.S. Poison Control and National Drug Intelligence have all issued health warnings, noting nationwide emergency room visits related to these drugs. On October 2011, the DEA announced an emergency ban on MDPV, Methylone & Mephedrone, making testing for these substances more vital than ever.

Start Testing for Designer Stimulants

   NEW "LEGAL HIGH" LAB DRUG TEST
  • Detects many illicitly synthesized forms of stimulants sold online and in head shops nationwide

  • Quantitatively identifies active ingredients of many "legal high" products labeled as "bath salt" and "plant food," or sold as "Legal X"

  • expanded designer stimulant panel or the DEA banned panel covering MDPV, Methylone and Mephedrone

  • Performed on GC/MS and/or LC/MS/MS equipment; providing definitive synthetic stimulant biomarker test results

To add Designer Stimulant Testing  » Call 800-255-2159 or contact us online

Ordering a Designer Stimulant Drug Test is easy for any specimen you wish to have tested. Whether you're combining designer stimulant testing with your existing urine test panel or only want to test designer stimulants, our sales representatives are ready to help you set up your agency's test panel. Contact a RTL sales representative to ensure the Designer Stimulant test code (P80 or P81) is added to your labels.



Label with Test Code: To test for designer stimulants, check the box for "P80" or "P81" under your primary test panel on the specimen label. The lab will run whichever tests you check on the label. In the example above, RTL will run the P08 Screen 8 and the Designer Stimulant test panel.
