The answer comes directly from the FDA. Use a search engine and type "Why FDA has toughened it's stance against saliva-based drug test kits"

This article clearly explains that the tests are so unreliable; it is due mainly to the high rate of false positives. The FDA has rejected every application for approval. In fact many states have made saliva based testing illegal in the work place due to false positives.
