Typically, these are mandatory tests administered at the behest of law enforcement, a court, an employer, or a medical clinic. The objective of the
test, which is conducted by means of urine analysis, is different depending upon who orders it. Tests administered by law enforcement, the court, or an employer are conducted to determine if narcotic or illegal
drugs are present in one’
s urine. If it is present it
will likely result in being charged with a crime or, the revocation of probation or, being fired. The purpose of a medical clinic mandated urine
test is to make
sure that a particular prescribed drug is present in one’s urine and, if it is not, or if non-prescribed
drugs are present, the patient is issued no more narcotic prescriptions and is usually dropped as a patient of that facility. The underlying purpose of this
test is to make sure that the patient is not selling his or her medication. If s/he has no presence of the prescribed drug in his or her
system then it is assumed that they have unlawfully sold their medicine. Unfortunately, these tests are not one-hundred percent accurate.
