Establish historic repeated use with Lextox’s hair testing services
When you need to identify historic drug or alcohol use going back months, Lextox’s hassle-free hair testing is a reliable and accurate option. Lextox analyses for 17 of the most commonly used substances in the UK, alongside alcohol, ensuring testing can be conducted for a wide range of scenarios.
Hair drug testing: an overview
Our hair drug testing provides a retrospective analysis so you can see usage over a selected period of time, providing clear evidence for court. Identify trends with a month-by-month segmented analysis or choose overview analysis to give an overall indication of drug use.
Hair alcohol testing: an overview
Our hair alcohol testing provides an overview retrospective analysis for up to six months to assess excessive chronic alcohol consumption, analysing for the biomarkers: ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl palmitate (EtPa), which are only produced in the presence of alcohol.
As hair alcohol testing only provides an overview analysis, we always recommend this is used in conjunction with a blood alcohol test, which offers a snapshot in time of use.
