What is saliva alcohol testing and why is it important?

Saliva alcohol testing involves analyzing a saliva sample to determine the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level. It is important because it offers a quick, non-invasive way to assess alcohol consumption, useful in enforcing drinking laws, maintaining workplace safety, and supporting recovery programs.

How is saliva alcohol testing performed?

The test is conducted by placing a swab in the mouth to collect saliva. This swab is then placed into a device that measures the alcohol concentration. Results can be obtained within a few minutes, making it a preferred method for on-the-spot testing.

What can influence the results of a saliva alcohol test?

Consuming food, drinks, or mouthwash containing alcohol shortly before the test can affect the results. To ensure accuracy, it is recommended not to eat or drink anything (except water) at least 10 minutes before taking the test.

How are the results from saliva alcohol testing used?

Results from saliva alcohol testing are used to determine if an individual is currently under the influence of alcohol. Positive results can lead to legal implications, employment consequences, or adjustments in treatment plans for those in recovery. Negative results typically clear the individual for activities where sobriety is required, such as driving or operating heavy machinery.

Saliva alcohol tests provide a reliable and convenient method for quickly assessing alcohol intoxication, helping to enforce safety and legal standards related to alcohol consumption.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
