‘This testis an unconfirmed screen. Confirmation by a more definitive technique such as GC/MS is recorhmended,
Other than the above findings, examination of the specimen(s) submitted did not reveal any positive findings of
toxicological significance by procedures outlined in the accompanying Analysis Summary.
Reference Comments:
1. Barbturates - Urine:
Barbiturates are CNS depressants that are prescibed as therapy fora variety of conditions including analgesia’
{and minor medical procedures. Barbturates may be used fo their rapié action in the emergency trestment of
Convulsions and to reduce cerebral blood fow and oxygen consumption in patients with cerebral edbma.
This result derives from a presumptive test, which may be subject to cross-reactivity with non-barbityrate
‘elated compounds. A second testis necessary to confirm the presence of barbiturate related comppunds.
2. Butalbital - Peripheral Bloos:
Butalbital isa barbiturate derivative with an intermediate duration of action. Signs noted following is
administration include drowsiness, sedation and ataxia. The substance is often found in combination with other
‘Compounds, such as acetaminophen, aspirin, codeine, or caffeine. Typically these mixtures contain $0 mg of
butalbital
‘The reported mean peak blood concentration following a single 100 mg dose of butalbital was 2.1 megiml.
(range, 1.7 -26 megimL) at 2 hours with a decine to 1.6 megiml. (ange, 1.3- 1.7 mogimL) by 24 hours,
Concentrations of butalbital in 64 persons arrested for driving under the influence of drugs have beeh reported
‘at blood concentrations ranging from 0.1 - 28 magimL. (average &.5 mogiml), Two reported butalbta-elated
‘deaths had blood concentrations of 13 and 26 megimL..
3. Caffeine (No-Doz) - Peripheral Blood
Caffeine is @ xanthine-derived central nervous system stimulant. t also produces diuresis and cardi and
respiratory stimulation. It can be readiy found in such items as coffee, tea, soft crinks and chocolatel As a
reference, atypical cup of coffee or tea contains between 40 to 100 mg caffeine.
‘The reported qualitative result for this substance was based upon a single analysis ony. If confirmation testing
Is required please contact the laboratory.

Reference Comments:
4. Lorazepam (Ativan) - Peripheral Blood:
Lorazepam is a DEA Schedule IV benzodiazepine used in the treatment of anxiety and for shore relief of
anxiety associated with depressive symptoms. It shares the actions and adverse reactions of other CNS-
depressants, This compound does have abuse potential and should be used cautiously with other °NS-
depressants,
Lorazepam can be administered by oral, IV and IM routes; daly divided oral doses of up to 10 mg are generally
Prescribed for anxiety, Following a single oral dose of 2 mg, lorazepam concentrations in plasma averaged 20
DgimL. decining to 10 ng/mL by 12 hours. Chronic oral administration of 10 mg dose resulted in anjaverage
steady-state plasma lorazepam level of 200 ng/ml (range, 140 - 240 ng/mL). In blood, the maxirnu
therapeutic effect with lorazepam is reported to be within the range of 30-50 ng/mL
Fatalities with lorazepam are retatively rare and generally have postmortem blood concentrations ekceeding
300 ngimL:; however, such concentrations are nat necessarily fatal,
5. _Nelorone (Narcan®) - Peripheral Blood
"Naloxone is a narcotic antagorist used to counter the central nervous system depression effects of opioids,
including respiratory depression. Its also used forthe diagnosis of suspected acute opioid overdosage.
"Naloxone is available as a 0:4 mg/ml solution ofthe hydrochloride for perenteral injection,
Naloxone is also availabe in combination with buprenorphine (Subaxone®) forthe treatment of opigid
dependence. This combination is available in tablets of 2 mg buprenorphine with 0.5 mg naloxone 8 mg
‘buprenorphine with 2 mg of naloxone for sublingual administration
‘The reported qualitative result for this substance was besed upon a single analysis only. confmation testing
{required please contact the laboratory.
6. _Norpseudoephedtrne (Cathine) - Pericheral Blood
Norpseudoephecrine is a metabolite of Pseudoephedrine.
7. Pseudoephectine - Perisheral Blood:
Pseudoephecrine is a sympathomimetic decongestant used to treat respiratory symptoms of allergi¢s and the
‘Sommon cold, It is commonly found in both prescription and non-prescription coldaliergy remedies gither alone
rin combination with anthistamines, anitussives, expectorants, andlor analgesics. The usual oral duit
dosage of pseudoephedrine in immediate-release preparations is 60 mg every 4 to 6 hours; the ususl oral
‘dosage for extended-release preparations is either 120 mg every 12 hours or 240 mg once dally,
Pseudoephedrine is metabolized to a small extent inthe liver by N-demethylation to form norpseudcephedrine
{cathine), About 80% of 8 dose is excreted inthe urine within 36 hours. Between 65 - 75% ofa dosels excreted
8 unchanged drug, the remainder as metabolites with less than 1% excreted as norpseudeepheunite. The
«elimination in urine is pH-dependent, increasing with acidification and decreasing with alkalinization (tubular
reabsorption occurs at pH > 7.0). Due primarily to the pH-dependent diferences In excretion, the elinination
halflife of pseudoephedrine may vary from 3 to 16 hours,
Following @ 60 mg oral dose, a mean peak plasma level of 200 ngimL at 3 hours was reported, aftela 180 mg
oral dose, the mean peak plasma level was 800 ng/mL. A postmortem blood concentration of 19000 fgimL was
‘ported in a fatal case. Pseudoephedrine may exhibit postmortem redistribution; the mean heartferporal ratio,
Teporiedis 1.5 (range, 09-22)
Unless alternate arrangements are made by you, the remeinder of the submitted specimens wil be discardad two (2)
years from the date of this report; and generated data will be discarded five (6) years from the date the analjses were
Performed.
