Specialty Drug Testing in Solon

Extended Substance Screening for Individuals & Employers

Standard 5- and 10-panel drug screens leave a lot off the table. When the substance in question is a heavy metal, an unidentified pill, or a compound that never appears on a routine employment screen, you need a different approach. At Fastest Labs Solon, we provide Specialty Drug Testing at our Solon location, with all results confirmed through our industry-leading laboratory.

Our specialty testing goes well beyond standard panels to screen for Heavy Metals, Poisons and Toxins, and a wide range of other substances. We also offer pill or syringe identification for unknown substances and can test liquid or food products for traces of harmful toxins, drugs, or chemicals. Every test uses certified methods that meet court and employer requirements.

Not sure which test fits your situation? Call (440) 760-0040 and we’ll help you figure it out before you come in.

Who Uses Specialty Drug Testing

We work with both individuals and businesses across Solon and Cuyahoga County. If you believe you may have been drugged, specialty testing can help identify the substance involved. Employers can add specialty screening to a broader employee testing program covering pre-employment, random, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, and return-to-duty scenarios. With proper authorization, we can provide results directly to your organization.

Legal and court contexts are another common need. When a standard panel result isn’t sufficient to establish what substance was involved, specialty testing fills that gap. Employers in safety-sensitive industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, and transportation, sometimes face regulatory or contractual requirements that call for substance-specific screening beyond a standard panel.

How to Prepare for Your Visit

Bring a valid government-issued photo ID. A driver’s license or passport works; paper copies and phone photos don’t. If your employer is sending you, also bring any paperwork or authorization forms they’ve provided. When minors are being tested, a custodial parent or legal guardian must be present with proper ID.

Most tests don’t require fasting, but specialty tests can have specific collection requirements depending on what’s being screened for. If you’re unsure how to prepare, call us before your appointment. A quick conversation can save you a wasted trip.

Results & Turnaround

Specialty Drug Testing requires laboratory confirmation rather than point-of-collection screening, so results may take a few days. Once complete, results can be provided directly to employers with proper authorization. We’ll let you know what to expect for your specific test.

Common Reasons for Specialty Drug Testing

Specialty testing comes up when a standard panel simply can’t answer the question. Suspected drugging or poisoning incidents may involve GHB or other compounds that don’t appear on routine employment screens. Product contamination investigations can require testing liquid or food products for traces of drugs, toxins, or chemicals. When legal proceedings hinge on identifying a specific substance, a standard panel result often isn’t enough to establish what was involved. Employers may also need screening for Nicotine, Synthetic Cannabinoids, or Novel Psychoactive Substances as part of industry-specific or policy-driven requirements.

Pill & Syringe Identification

Finding an unknown pill or syringe raises an immediate question: what is it? Our pill or syringe identification service routes unknown substances through our industry-leading laboratory to help identify what a substance may be. This applies in workplace safety situations when an employer or employee needs to confirm what a substance is, and in personal or legal circumstances where the contents of a found syringe are unknown.

Specialty Testing in Ohio’s Workplace Drug Testing Framework

Ohio’s voluntary Substance Use Prevention and Recovery (SUPR) Program, administered by the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation, allows employers to pursue workers’ compensation premium rebates and requires testing through SAMHSA-certified labs as part of its baseline requirements. Specialty Drug Testing supplements that baseline for employers whose needs go beyond standard panels. The Ohio Administrative Code also outlines workplace drug testing rules covering sample handling, employee rights, and how results may be used. Conducting specialty testing at a certified lab can support compliance with those standards. For Cuyahoga County employers navigating industry-specific or contractual screening requirements, extended substance panels are sometimes the only way to meet the obligation.
