The DOT 10-Panel Drug Test is the standard urine drug test required by the Department of Transportation for safety-sensitive employees. The test screens for marijuana (THC), cocaine, amphetamines (including methamphetamine and MDMA), opioids (including codeine, morphine, heroin, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, oxycodone, and oxymorphone), and phencyclidine (PCP).

This federally mandated test must follow strict procedures including specimen collection at certified collection sites, testing at SAMHSA-certified laboratories, and review by Medical Review Officers (MROs). DOT testing is required for pre-employment, random, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, and follow-up testing.
