Description
The multi drug test (12 panel) is a rapid urine test for the orientational detection of 12 relevant substance classes. The Dipcard cassette provides qualitative results in approx. 3–5 minutes and offers a quick overview of possible substance findings.
- Screening for 12 substance classes in one Dipcard test cassette
- Result in 3–5 minutes
- Each test field is interpreted separately
- Easy to use – no laboratory required
- Discreet and free shipping from Switzerland
How to use the multi drug test for 12 substance types
- Collect the urine sample in a clean, dry container.
- Open the test pouch and immerse the cassette with the test strips into the urine according to the instructions.
- Place the test cassette on a flat surface.
- Read the result after 3–5 minutes.
- Do not interpret the result after more than 10 minutes

Result interpretation
How to read the multi drug test correctly:
- Negative: control line (C) and test line (T) are visible
- Positive: only the control line (C) is visible
- Invalid: control line is missing → repeat the test

Each window of the cassette corresponds to one specific substance.
The test shows separately for each substance whether the cut-off value has been exceeded.
Cut-off values & detection times at a glance
Cut-off values define the concentration at which a test result is considered positive. Detection times are guideline values and may vary individually.
| Substance | Cut-off | Typical detection time |
|---|---|---|
| Cocaine | 300 ng/ml | 1–3 days |
| Opiates | 2000 ng/ml | 2–4 days |
| THC | 50 ng/ml | 3–5 days, longer with regular use |
| Morphine | 300 ng/ml | 2–5 days |
| Benzodiazepines | 300 ng/ml | 1–3 days |
| EDDP (Methadone) | 100 ng/ml | 2–3 days |
| Amphetamine | 1000 ng/ml | 1–3 days |
| Methamphetamine | 1000 ng/ml | 1–3 days |
| MDMA | 500 ng/ml | 1–3 days |
| Spice / K2 | 200 ng/ml | 3–5 days, longer with regular use |
| Oxycodone | 300 ng/ml | 2–4 days |
| PCP | 25 ng/ml | 1–5 days |
Actual detection time depends, among other things, on frequency of use, metabolism, body fat percentage and fluid intake.

Screening test vs. legally defensible analysis
This test is a screening procedure. For legal or medical questions, a confirmatory analysis (e.g. GC/MS) is required.
Technical background & sources
The content is intended for orientational classification (screening, detection windows, cut-off principle, influencing factors) and is based on publicly accessible professional sources as well as the relevant manufacturer documentation (IFU / instructions for use). It does not replace individual medical or legal advice or a laboratory-based confirmatory analysis.
