No one wants to believe a loved one or family member is addicted to drugs, but addiction is a common problem. Home saliva drug tests kits offer parents and family members a chance to test for drug use without authorities or medical personnel. Saliva drug test kits can test for cocaine, marijuana, heroine, amphetamines, methamphetamines, opiates, phencyclidines and benzodiazephines.
How is Saliva Collected and Tested?
Home saliva drug test kits use a small amount of saliva collected on a sponge attached to an instant test. The instant test will reveal current drug use within 10 minutes. The swab is then sent away for confirmation testing from an independent lab. Residual traces of drugs stay in saliva for only two to three days, in most cases. Even if the saliva drug test kits result is negative, drugs could have been consumed within the past week.
Pros and Cons of Saliva Drug Test Kits
Home test kits are not obtrusive and simple to use. The test results are immediate and difficult to alter when the test is watched during the 10 minute results period. Saliva drug test kits are affordable and lab testing is not required. Tests can be used for random drug testing in the workplace or home. There are only a couple negatives about home saliva drug test kits. The testing window is very small – only three days. Smoking can affect results as can saliva production.
Prescription Drug Abuse and Saliva Drug Test Kits
Several companies sell saliva drug test kits. Kits are available to detect one drug or multiple drugs at the same time. Some tests cover prescription drugs like methadone and oxycodone. If a specific drug is suspected, it is important to buy saliva drug testing kits that will test for that drug individually or as part of the screening panel.
Verifying Results with a Lab
Employers using saliva drug test kits most often work with a local lab to verify results. Parents, however, may be taken aback by a positive result and want professional verification or additional details about the positive result. Some saliva drug test kits list laboratories where the kit can be sent and tested for an additional fee.

How do you pass a saliva drug test home remedies?
They only way to pass a drug test is to not take drugs in the first place. ^^ The person that posted the above answer is a judgmental prick. S/He should go smoke a pack of cigarettes and drink a few bottles of whiskey... The cool thing about a saliva drug test is that it is not looking at your history of drug use, just the past few days. Most drugs are out of your saliva within a few days and, depending on your body type, less than a day.
