About this test

This is Better2Know's broadest drugs profile, checking a single urine sample for 16 individual substances: alcohol, amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, cocaine, codeine, dihydrocodeine, ketamine, LSD, MDMA, methadone, methaqualone, morphine, phencyclidine and propoxyphene. It is aimed at anyone who wants the widest possible drug and alcohol coverage in one test rather than a shorter, more targeted panel.

This is the top-scoring toxicology test we track for clinical depth, since 16 substances is more than any comparable profile in our data. It also scores well for collection convenience, with flexible sample arrangements available. There is no comparable panel recorded to check its £245 price against, so we cannot say whether that reflects good value for the extra coverage. It loses marks on results and follow-up, since a doctor does not routinely review your result unless it is positive.

Better2Know is CQC registered, holds a 4.2 Trustpilot score from 775 reviews, and has been trading since 2008.

Who is it for?

This suits anyone who wants the broadest possible drug and alcohol screen in a single test, for example if you are uncertain exactly what you may have been exposed to and want the widest coverage available. If you only need to check for a narrower, known set of substances, a shorter profile is likely to cost less.

There is no comparable panel recorded for this listing, so we cannot say how its price compares with an equivalent 16-substance test from another provider.

How it works

You provide a urine sample, which is sent to Better2Know's laboratory for analysis against all 16 substances. Results are typically available within about 2 days of the sample arriving and are uploaded to your secure online patient area, with contact from the patient services team once results are ready. The provider does not state that a doctor reviews your result as standard, and you can remain anonymous during the process if you prefer.

Our editorial score

Compare Health Test Score Widest drug panel we track, at 16 substances in one test
Editorial confidence: 9.0/10

This urine screen checks for 16 individual substances, from alcohol and cannabis to ketamine, LSD and several opiates, more than any other toxicology test we track. It costs £245, and because there is no comparable panel recorded to benchmark it against, we cannot say whether that price is high or low for this level of coverage.
