Drug testing is a tool that can be used to determine if a parent is using substances and to facilitate decision making with families affected by substance use disorders.

Drug testing refers to the use of biologic sources, such as urine, saliva, sweat, and hair to identify specific substances or their metabolites in an individual’s system. The most effective way to identify a substance use disorder is to use a combination of screening and assessment tools inclusive of safety and risk assessments, clinical instruments, random drug testing, self-reports, and observations of behavioral indicators.
