Overview

Mouth swab (saliva) drug testing is a non-invasive method that detects very recent drug use. It is increasingly popular for workplace testing because it is difficult to cheat and provides immediate results with instant tests.

Who Should Get This Test?

Workplace reasonable suspicion testing, post-accident investigations, random testing programs, pre-employment screening, on-site/mobile testing.

What Does It Detect?

Marijuana (THC), Cocaine, Opiates, Amphetamines/Methamphetamine, Phencyclidine (PCP), and Benzodiazepines. Detection window is shorter than urine but reflects more recent use.

Detection Window

24-48 hours for most drugs. Best for detecting same-day or very recent use. Marijuana detection is shorter in saliva than urine.

How to Prepare

Avoid eating or drinking 10 minutes before test. Avoid brushing teeth or using mouthwash immediately before. Bring valid photo ID. Follow collector instructions for swab placement.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is saliva testing?
Saliva testing is highly accurate for detecting recent drug use. It has lower false positive rates than urine tests and is difficult to adulterate because collection is directly observed.
Can I eat or drink before a mouth swab test?
Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or chewing gum for at least 10 minutes before the test. Food particles can interfere with sample collection.
How long does THC stay in saliva?
THC is typically detectable in saliva for 24-48 hours after last use. This is much shorter than urine detection, making saliva ideal for same-day or next-day testing.
