Urine drug testing can either be conducted by a Laboratory or by an Instant Result test. 

Laboratory testing is the most accurate test available, but it is more expensive. Results for laboratory testing are normally available in 24-48 hours. Laboratory tests include testing for adulterants and substituted specimens and GC/MS confirmation on all positive results.
