Confirm Biosciences’ HairConfirm drug test gets national distribution
San Diego, Calif.-based diagnostic test maker Confirm Biosciences’ HairConfirm drug test is getting nationwide distribution. The product, which can test for up to 14 commonly abused drugs, has launched into CVS Pharmacy stores.
HairConfirm provides a 90-day look at substance abuse, compared with the 2-to-3 day window offered by urine tests. The test offers a private Specimen ID and test results can be accessed through a secure online portal to maintain anonymity, Confirm Biosciences said.
HairConfirm is approved by the Food and Drug Administration, and the tests are completed by Confirm Biosciences’ CLIA-certified lab. Results are provided in 3-to-9 days along with an easy-to-read report. The company also provides customer support and resources to help guide discussions with loved ones.
The HairConfirm kit retails for $19.99 plus a laboratory fee — $59 to test for 10 drugs or $89 for a 10-drug test plus four prescription opioids.
