The results from this test can be reported qualitatively as negative or positive relative to the 100 ng/mL cutoff level for oxycodone. Positive results indicate that the specimen is likely to contain oxycodone. Negative results indicate that either the specimen does not contain oxycodone or that oxycodone is present in concentrations below the cutoff level of 100 ng/mL.
Results of this test should always be interpreted in conjunction with the patient’s medical history, clinical presentation, and other findings.
