Fighting A National Problem
The Director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) declared, “The abuse of methamphetamine—a potent and highly addictive stimulant—remains an extremely serious problem in the United States.”
Additionally, it was said:
“According to data from the 2012 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), over 12 million people (4.7 percent of the population) have tried methamphetamine at least once.”
Methamphetamine use can lead to several serious health concerns. If you suspect someone is using, it’s important to get them help as quickly as possible. Meth is a highly addictive drug, so the symptoms should not go be ignored.

There are several reasons or circumstances that can lead to the necessity of a drug test.
Why do businesses need to randomly drug test employees?
“Pre-employment screening is not good enough to reduce drugs in the workplace as anyone can stop long enough to find a job… ”
“If your business doesn’t drug test, you will likely attract illicit drug abusers looking for employment…”
Why Do Businesses Need Random Employee Drug Tests?
Do you remember the last time you applied for a new job? Or perhaps you are a hiring manager at the business who has accepted many applications and interviewed potential hires. One common part of the hiring process is the pre-employment drug test. No matter what side of the process you are on, this drug test is designed to ensure that the company ends up with the best employees possible who will be able to perform their duties safely and successfully.
Which Testing Method Is Best For My Situation?
Here is a breakdown:
- If you need to detect use within the past several days, a urine test is optimal. This is also the most common testing method. A blood test is also an effective option, but it’s more expensive.
- If you need to know if someone has used methamphetamines within the past 90 days, the hair follicle test is the best choice.
- If meth was used within the last 24 hours, the saliva test is often preferred as it is non-invasive.
