Meth is an extremely dangerous drug, the abuse of which has resulted in many families and individuals feeling the effects of far too many overdoses and far too many arrests. You can find out how it affects Americans state by state at the government hosted website,
Meth Resources. Fortunately, you can
home drug test for meth, and do so with great accuracy: for example, the
urine drug test for meth is over 99% accurate.
So when it comes to choosing a meth test, how do you choose one? Which one works best for your purposes? We try to make sure people are clear on what test will work for them.
Meth Test: Urine Drug Test
This test is over 99% accurate and is very simple to use. Meth appears in urine about 2-5 hours after consumption, and can still be detected in urine for as long as 3-5 days after use. All you need for this home drug test is a urine sample and a timer. If you wish to test for meth in conjunction with other drugs, there are
4 drug and
10/10+ drug options, all of which test for meth in addition to other drugs. These tests have all been cleared by the FDA. So if you are looking for recent drug use this is the best test.
Meth Test: Saliva Drug Test
If you are looking to know if somebody is currently high, this test will tell you. As early as 10 minutes after use, this test will pick up methamphetamine in saliva. It is also really easy to use and not messy to administer. Meth can stay in saliva for up to 3 days.
Meth Test: Hair Drug Test
You may have heard about special shampoos and other things that make passing a hair drug test possible. Don't worry - they don't work. This test can answer your questions about long term drug use. A hair drug test requires only a small sample of hair - body or head hair (although be aware the PDT-90 test does not accept body hair; the others do) - and the sample once analyzed by the laboratory will tell you a 90 day drug history. In the case of body hair, a history of up to 5-6 months can be obtained. You have to wait for the drug to grow out from the root of the hair though - in the case of head hair, that's about a week, in the case of body hair which grows more slowly, the time you must wait is longer.
