The PharmChek® drugs of abuse sweat patch is the most effective means of continuously monitoring for drugs of abuse–no testing windows, no missed tests. PharmChek uses transdermal testing, measuring sweat as the specimen source. Because the sweat patch is worn on the skin for 10 to 14 days, it not only acts as a deterrent to continued drug use, but also ensures that any drug use during the period the patch is worn is detected. With sweat testing–unlike urine–the parent drug, as well as the drug metabolite, can typically be detected.
