Fentanyl and its analogs now appear across the drug supply, yet the standard 12-panel does not test for it. LabX confirms fentanyl and norfentanyl by LC-MS/MS so safety-sensitive programs are not blind to the drug driving overdose statistics.
Why fentanyl needs its own test
Fentanyl is structurally different from the opiates on a basic panel, so a 12-panel opiate screen will not flag it. You need fentanyl explicitly β included in our 12-panel or added to any custom order.
Who should test for fentanyl
Transportation, construction, healthcare, and any post-accident program. Fentanyl positivity is markedly higher in random and post-accident testing than at pre-employment.

Talk to a licensed physician
A drug test result is information, not a diagnosis or medical advice. Review your results, any medications you take and any symptoms with a licensed physician, and call 911 or go to an emergency department if someone is in danger. See our medical disclaimer.
