Drug & Alcohol Testing
Central Iowa provides statewide drug testing for DHS. We have sites located throughout the state to allow all residents ample access to our collectors.
CIJDC also offers testing to individuals as private pay options. Great for parents, employers or any one in need of instant results. For private pay testing please contact us at drugtesting@cijdc.com
Urine Analysis
We provide multiple types of UA testing that include the basic 9 panel testing of commonly abused drugs to a 14 panel test that screens for prescription drug abuse. We also offer instant testing for 5 or 10 panel tests.
Hair Testing
Hair testing can detect a much longer period of drug use. For example, urinalysis can only detect most drugs within 2-3 days of use. After this period, a donor will be free of the drug, test negative and slip through the screening process. By comparison, the industry standard is to test 1.5 inches of head hair for approximately 90 days of history

Sweat Patch
PharmChek® drugs of abuse patch uses sweat as the specimen source. It provides an alternative to urine collection and offers a number of advantages. Because the sweat patch is worn on the skin for up to 10 days or longer, it not only acts as a deterrent to continued drug use, but also increases the window of detection to include any period when it is worn. With sweat testing - unlike urine - the parent drug as well as the drug metabolite can typically be detected. Therefore, it is easier to identify which drug was actually taken..
