Drug Abuse Testing Market Overview
Drug Abuse Testing Market size is estimated at $7.4 billion in 2020, projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period 2021-2026. Drug Abuse Testing
is the detection of one or more illicit and/or prescribed drugs in the blood,
urine, hair, spit, Breath test or sweat. Tests detect the substances that are
normally not found in the body, with the exception of some hormones and
steroids measured as part of sports doping test through Assay kits & Immunoassay Analyzers. The increase
in number of people consuming illicit drugs such as cocaine and alcohol is one
of the main drivers of the drug abuse testing market. Substance Abuse Testing
usually consists of an initial screening exam followed by a second breath test
to determine and/or confirm the presence of a drug or drugs. The majority of
laboratories rely on commercially accessible urine samples that have been
produced and tested for serious drug addiction. Furthermore, technical
advancements in drug screening are propelling the Drug Abuse Testing Industry
forward.

Drug Abuse Testing Market Segment Analysis – By Drug Type:
Based on Drug Type, Cannabis/Marijuana
Drug Abuse Testing Segment accounted for the
largest revenue market share in 2020. This is due to the fact that marijuana,
also known as cannabis, is the most widely used illicit drug on the planet.
Marijuana was also the most commonly used illicit substance in the United
States in 2018, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration, with 43.5 million users. Marijuana testing is a method of
detecting marijuana consumption via Assay kits & Immunoassay Analyzers
products and breath test. Marijuana, commonly known as cannabis, is a type of
plant that generates cannabinoids like THC. Cannabinoids have a variety of
physiological effects and can be used for both medical and recreational
purposes. Marijuana testing is usually done using a sample of a person's urine,
although it can also be done with blood, breath test, saliva, or hair.
Marijuana testing can be used for a variety of reasons, including medical
screening and job screening driving the segment growth. Opioids Drug Abuse
Testing segment is anticipated to grow with the second fastest CAGR of 7.3% in
the forecast period 2021-2026. The rising opioid issue in important regions
like North America and Europe is to blame for this. According to the National
Center for Drug Abuse Statistics, approximately 2 million persons in the United
States had opioid use disorder in 2018. In addition, major market competitors
are pursuing organic growth strategies to extend their opioid testing offering.
Drug Abuse Testing Market Segment Analysis – By Sample Type:
Based on Sample
Type, Urine accounted
for the largest revenue market share in 2020 and is also anticipated to
grow with the fastest CAGR of 11.4% in the forecast period 2021-2026. Urine
testing for drug abuse has been recommended and applied in many instances for
workplace drug misuse, when breath test fails at the incidence place and also
in criminal justice proceedings, and so on. Several laboratories that were set
up to do urinalysis in conjunction with methadone treatment have had to greatly
increase their capacity by using Assay kits and Immunoassay Analyzers products.
As a result, the urine analysis market segment is expected to pick up steam in
the near future, allowing the Drug Abuse Testing Industry to grow. Blood is
projected to witness the second fastest CAGR of 6.9% during the forecast period
2021-2026. Blood analysis provides a relatively short detection window since
drugs are rapidly metabolised and removed from the body. Immunoassay screening
with reflex to definitive testing is used to perform blood drug screen tests on
whole blood specimens, hence enhancing the market's growth.
Drug Abuse Testing Market Segment Analysis – By Geography:
Based on Geography, North America Drug Abuse Testing Market accounted for the 39% of revenue share in 2020 owing to the increased supply of medications, breath test, increased use of illegal drugs and increased drug testing for legal purposes. The use of technologically upgraded devices for drug abuse testing, such as Assay kits and Immunoassay Analyzers, as well as increased demand for illicit drugs in the country and massive drug trafficking, are all contributing to the region's market growth. As a result, rising drug and alcohol abuse, as well as the development of new technologies to detect intoxication in the body, are expected to help market expansion in the sector over the forecast period, making it a large prospective market for Drug Abuse Testing manufacturers. Asia-Pacific is predicted to be the fastest growing region during the forecast period 2021- 2026 owing to the rising prevalence of substance addiction problems in key Asia Pacific countries, as well as ongoing regulatory attempts to manage it.
Drug Abuse Testing Market - Drivers
Increasing Drug & Alcohol Consumption:
According
to the 2019 World Drug Report, approximately 5.5 percent of the global
population aged 15–64 took drugs at least once in 2017. Substance abuse
disorders affected 35 million people in 2017, up from 30.5 million in 2016.
585,000 persons resulted in the death of drug use in the same year. The global
cost of drug harm is equivalent to 28 million years of healthy life.
Similar increases in alcohol intake have been observed, with the resultant rise
in the prevalence of impaired driving. The demand of driving Drug Abuse Testing
Market is also increasing owing to the increase in utilization of
illegal drugs in recent days and the technological developments in Drug Abuse
Testing through various products like Assay kits & Immunoassay Analyzers.
Drug Abuse Testing Market - Challenges
Violation Of Privacy:
Drug Abuse Tests are viewed as a violation of one's
privacy in some nations, which is limiting the market's growth. Cannabis usage
is allowed in nations like Canada, South Africa, and Georgia, for instance.
This prevents the usage of Cannabis Drug Abuse Tests in these areas, limiting
the global growth of the Drug Abuse Testing Market. This could make drug and alcohol
testing more difficult to implement in certain markets, which further restrains
the Drug Abuse Testing Market growth.
Drug
Abuse Testing Market - Landscape:
The Drug Abuse Testing Market's main strategies include product
launches, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, and regional expansion. Drug Abuse Testing Market top 10
companies are Quest Diagnostics Incorporated, OraSure, Premier Biotech, Alfa
Scientific Designs Lifeloc, Abbott Laboratories, Hoffmann-La Roche AG, Siemens
AG, Danaher Corporation and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.
Acquisitions/Product Launches:
In February 2021, In the United States and
Canada, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. has partnered with Mindray, a leading
global researcher, manufacturer, and supplier of medical devices, to make two
clinical chemistry analyzers available to clients for drug screening in
clinical and drug court laboratories. Thermo can meet the needs of customers in
commercial labs, hospitals, and the criminal justice field thanks to this
exclusive cooperation with Mindray.
