Urine drug test cups are also designed to indicate temperature which assists admins in identifying doctored urine samples.

Detecting the Presence of TCA:

The 12 Panel Multi-Panel Drug Test Cup from Overdose Reduction detects the presence of 12 drugs including Tricyclic Antidepressants (TCA). TCAs are an antidepressant prescribed for clinical depression and other disorders like OCD and panic disorders. At times, TCAs are prescribed when some patients are resistant to other drugs. The drug works by keeping more serotonin in the brain, thus elevating the mood and allowing the user to experience reasonably less depression.

Many of those responsible for administering urine drug screens will implement a TCA screen, or incorporate a tricyclic antidepressant drug test during testing. TCA testing is not uncommon, however, the drug itself is not considered dangerously addictive. Sudden discontinued use of this prescription drug without any clinical consideration could certainly result in withdrawal symptoms. However long-term use of TCA’s can lead to dependency.

Benefits of Using Multi-Drug Screening Cups:

Each of these cup tests provide 99% accurate results and can be completed in under 10 minutes. These are one of the best drug test cups for institutions that are required to test large quantities of candidates in a short period of time.

Test Instructions:

To understand more about the drug test instructions, please follow the guidelines below.

It is important that the test administrator collects all of the necessary tools for the screening process before obtaining the urine sample. This may include a stopwatch, eye protection, a face mask, a pen, and paper.

• Make sure that the specimen is at room temperature (59-78 degrees F) before use. Remove the cup from the sealed pouch and use it as soon as possible.
• Have the donor date and initial the body label. (if applicable)
• The donor provides a urine specimen in the testing cup and closes the cap tightly. This is when the administrator may begin using their stopwatch.
• The operator checks the cap for tightness to ensure that it is sealed properly.
• Remove the peel-off label.
• Check the temperature strip label 2-4 minutes after specimen collection for the fresh urine specimen. Green will appear above the number indicating the temperature of the urine specimen. The proper range for an unadulterated specimen is 90-100 degrees F (32-38 degrees C).
• Drug test results are indicated by the presence or absence of colored band(s) in the result area of the test strips. The result should be read at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 8 minutes.
• If necessary, positive test results may be confirmed by another drug testing method. The cup and urine specimen can be sent intact to a toxicology laboratory for confirmation.
