Order Tramadol Screen and Confirmation, UrineTramadol is a synthetic opioid analgesic prescribed for moderate to moderately severe pain.

About Tramadol Screen and Confirmation, Urine in Albuquerque
This panel pairs an initial immunoassay screen with a definitive confirmation step, reducing the chance that a presumptive result is reported without further verification.
The screening portion uses an immunoassay designed to flag specimens that may contain tramadol or its primary metabolites. Because immunoassays can cross-react with structurally related compounds, a reactive screen is considered presumptive rather than definitive.
When the screen is reactive, the specimen is typically reanalyzed using a more specific technique such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry or liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. These methods separate and identify the analyte by its chemical properties, which allows the laboratory to confirm or rule out the presence of tramadol.
Urine is the specimen type for this panel because tramadol and its metabolites are excreted in urine, and the collection is non-invasive. Detection windows depend on dose, metabolism, and hydration, so the timing of collection relative to use can influence results. Turnaround is generally one to three business days, and any preparation should follow the laboratory's instructions.
