Interpretation of results
Negative
➡ Two lines visible → no evidence of benzodiazepines
Positives
➡ Only one line visible → benzodiazepine metabolites detectable
Invalid
➡ No line or only one in the „T“ range invalid → test, repeat
i A weak second line is considered negative.
What to do in the event of a positive result?
- Repeat the test with a new test strip
- Confirmation by an accredited laboratory if required
- Check influencing factors (medication, dilution, time window)
Scientific background
Benzodiazepines have a sedative, anxiolytic and antispasmodic effect by enhancing the effects of the neurotransmitter GABA in the central nervous system. In the body, they are broken down in the liver; in some cases, active metabolites are produced in the process, which can extend the time of action and detection.
The rapid test is based on an immunological screening procedure and qualitatively detects benzodiazepines or their degradation products in the urine. A positive result indicates that the specified limit has been exceeded.
Detectability of benzodiazepines
Benzodiazepines can be detected in the urine for several days after consumption.
The actual duration depends on:
- Consumed quantity
- Metabolism
- Body weight
- Hydration
- Frequency of consumption
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How reliable is the benzodiazepine urine test?
The test is extremely reliable for the detection of BZO metabolites when used correctly.
When should I test?

What does a weak line mean?
A weak second line is considered negative.
Can the test be a false positive?
Very rare – certain medications can theoretically affect the test result.
How discreet is the shipping?
The test will be sent neutrally, discreetly without any indication of content (free of charge)
How long does the test last?
See best-before date on the packaging.
