Fingernail Drug Testing now available

Drugs of abuse have been measured in nails since 1984. Fingernails, toenails and hair are composed of a hard protein, keratin. Drugs are incorporated into nails from the blood stream and remain locked in the nail as it grows. Nails grow in both length and thickness.  Drugs enter the nail from the base as the keratin is formed and via the nail bed that extends under the full length of nail. Drugs can be identified in nail clippings 2-4 weeks following ingestion. Drugs can be detected in nails up to 8 months after last usage. Fingernails grow approximately 3-5 mm per month, toenails grow at a much slower rate of 1 mm per month. Drugs can possibly appear in toenail clippings over 1 year after ingestion
