We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

How fast can toxicology report?

Popular crime scene investigation television programs are able to complete toxicology reports in a very short (and unrealistic) time frame. In reality, while an autopsy is usually completed within a day or two after a death, the final results of the toxicology report may take four to six weeks or longer.

How long do toxicology results take to come back?

Forensic toxicology (in Medical Examiner Office cases) is very different from the drug testing performed in hospitals. Toxicology analysis may only take 4 to 6 weeks if no drugs are present; however, 6 to 8 weeks are typically required to perform the necessary confirmations and quantitations of drugs detected.

How long does it take to find out the cause of death?

The toxicology report that is eventually issued in forensic toxicology testing is the result of the lab procedures identifying and quantifying potential toxins, which include prescription medications and drugs of abuse and interpretations of the findings, says Howard S. Robin, MD.

How long does it generally take to get toxicology screening results back?

Although convenient, immunoassays are prone to false positive and false negative results. It is important for the health care provider to understand the principles of the laboratory methods involved with drug screens as this will help guide appropriate result interpretation and therefore improve clinical care.

How long do toxicology results take?

Negative results are usually received within 24 hours, however, a positive screen will require further testing that may take a few days up to one week.

Why is my toxicology report taking so long?

Each class of drugs requires a separate analysis for confirmation and quantitation. Therefore, if several drugs are detected in the drug screen, the confirmation/quantitation portion will take longer than if only one or two drugs are detected.
