Oxycodone Drug Test

Drug testing strips like the Oxycodone Drug Test have been widely used for some time as a primary tool for drug screenings. Their simple and readable design offers users a pleasant testing experience. The Oxycodone urine test is no exception; its design makes it an excellent tool for drug tests.

Key features of the OXY test strips:

Cost-effective
99% Accuracy
Results are displayed after 5 minutes
Easy to use
For forensic purposes only

The test strips can also be used in other testing devices such as dip cards and test cups. This makes them extremely adaptable and accurate. They offer an impressive accuracy rate of 99%, and their sensitive membrane can detect all traces of drugs in urine.

OXY Drug Test

This OXY drug test kit is created using the urine test method, which is the most commonly used method for drug tests today. This is because urine is very good at storing traces of drugs. For this reason, the Oxycodone drug test is based on this drug screening method.

In addition to the ability to store drug residues, urine is also a cost-effective method for testing drugs. The period during which urine stores the ingested drugs depends on several factors; however, the most important is the amount of the drug ingested. The more you take, the more likely it is to remain in your system.

The metabolization of drugs also plays a role, with your consumption also influencing this factor. The more you take, the longer it takes for the drugs to be metabolized out of your system.

What is the Oxycodone Drug Test used for?

The Rapid Oxycodone (OXY) Drug Test Strip is an immuno-chromatographic test for the qualitative determination of the presence of Oxycodone (OXY) with a cut-off of 100 ng/ml. This test provides only a preliminary analytical test result.

The preferred confirmation method is gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Clinical considerations and professional judgment should be applied to any drug abuse test result, especially when preliminary positive results are indicated.

What is Oxycodone?

Oxycodone is an analgesic that works by depressing the central nervous system. Oxycodone is abused due to its opioid-containing effects. In addition to its analgesic effect, which is as strong as morphine, it is also capable of alleviating withdrawal symptoms in chronic opiate use (heroin, morphine). For this reason, it is often used to alleviate or prevent the onset of opiate withdrawal symptoms in street users of heroin and methadone.

The medication is usually administered orally. Like other opioids, oxycodone can also depress the respiratory system, which can lead to suffocation and death in case of overdose. Oxycodone is highly addictive both physically and psychologically.

Some physical signs of oxycodone abuse include extreme appetite and weight loss, cramps, nausea, vomiting, excessive scratching and itching, excessive sweating, constipation, pinpoint pupils and watery eyes, visual impairment, drowsiness, euphoria, trance-like states, excessive thirst, trembling, twitching, irritability, hallucinations, and lethargy.

Instructions for the Oxycodone Urine Drug Test

Bring the tests, samples, buffers and/or controls to room temperature (15-30 °C) before using them, and then follow these simple steps.

Open: Remove the OXY Drug Test Strip from the sealed packaging or take a strip from the canister and use it as quickly as possible. For the best result, the test should be performed within one hour.
Dip: Hold the strip at the end where the product name is printed. To avoid contamination, do not touch the membrane of the strip. Immerse the test strip in the urine sample for at least 10-15 seconds. Do not dip beyond the maximum line (MAX) on the test strip.
Wait: After the test is completed, remove the strip from the sample and place it on a non-absorbent, flat surface.
Read: Start the timer and wait until the colored bands appear. The result should be read after 5 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.
