Description
Fingernail drug testing is a method used to detect the presence of drug metabolites in nail clippings, providing a long-term overview of a person’s drug use history.
- Fingernails provide a detection window of approximately 3 to 6 months.
- Toenails offer an even longer window, potentially up to 12 months, due to their slower growth rate.
- This extended window makes it suitable for detecting a pattern of drug use over time, as opposed to only recent use.
