Our Advances
Advancing Diagnostic Insights in Toxicology
Obtain Toxicology Results in 1 - 2 Days
Healthcare providers understand that reliable toxicology testing is critical to aiding in monitoring the effective prescription, use, and potential abuse of medications. For most prescribed medications, a certain level of the drug in the bloodstream is required to obtain the desired effect.
Medications can be harmful, however, if the level of the drug rises too high, or medications may be ineffective if the levels are too low. Moreover, drug interactions between medications, dietary supplements, or even specific foods can also impact the successful treatment of patients through the prescription of medications.
Securely Manage Patient Results with Data Intelligence
Innovative and Reliable Toxicology Testing Platforms
Total Lab Solutions offers extensive experience in providing therapeutic drug monitoring testing. Healthcare providers trust our assays to assist them in assessing and adjusting individual patient medication to promote patient care and drive better treatment outcomes.
All medications can cause side effects, which may lead to new symptoms or worsen existing symptoms. As part of an optimal care plan, it is important that healthcare providers routinely monitor all prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, and supplements.
Information and insights obtained from our toxicology testing can be used to minimize the risk of toxicity for a patient and shorten the time needed to establish and maintain an optimal dosing regimen—improving safety, reducing the burden of adverse drug events, and promoting better health outcomes.

What we test
- Presumptive screening to show which drug classes are present.
- Definitive confirmation by LC/MS to identify specific drugs and metabolites and report concentrations.
- Drug classes covered: opiates and opioids (including fentanyl and its analogs), benzodiazepines, stimulants, barbiturates, muscle relaxants, gabapentin and pregabalin, sedatives, antidepressants, antipsychotics, ketamine, THC, alcohol metabolites (EtG and EtS), nicotine, and illicit drugs including cocaine, heroin, MDMA, PCP, synthetic cannabinoids, xylazine, and kratom.
- Specimen validity testing (pH, specific gravity, and creatinine) on every specimen to flag diluted or substituted samples.
How it supports care
- Confirms patients are taking what is prescribed.
- Identifies non-prescribed or illicit substances that change the treatment plan.
- Gives you a documented, defensible record for controlled-substance prescribing.
