The 12 Panel Drug Test, Hair Profile is a laboratory analysis that screens for a defined set of drugs of abuse using a hair specimen. Hair testing offers a distinct window of detection compared with blood or urine, because substances and their metabolites become incorporated into the growing hair shaft over time. This profile is used when a broader historical record of exposure is relevant to the testing purpose.

About 12 Panel Drug Test (Drugs of Abuse Testing), Hair in Arlington

Hair-based drugs of abuse testing examines a keratinized sample that retains markers of exposure across a longer timeframe.

Hair grows at a relatively steady rate, so the segment of hair collected can reflect exposure over a period of weeks to months, depending on the length of the sample and the laboratory's protocol. This contrasts with urine or blood, which generally capture a shorter window.

The twelve-panel format groups multiple drug classes into a single profile. Depending on the laboratory, these panels commonly include amphetamines, methamphetamines, cocaine metabolite, opiates, phencyclidine, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, methadone, propoxyphene, meperidine, and cannabinoids, though the exact analyte list can vary by provider.

Specimen collection for hair testing is typically non-invasive and uses a small sample cut close to the scalp, or body hair when scalp hair is insufficient. Because hair can be affected by external contamination, laboratories follow established washing and confirmation procedures to support the reliability of reported results.
