Drugs of Abuse Tests

What Drugs of Abuse Tests does

Drugs of Abuse Tests is a US-based e-commerce division of Mercedes Scientific (legal entity Mercedes Medical, LLC, Florida) that has operated since 1991 in the drug and alcohol testing consumables market. The company sells CLIA-waived lateral-flow chromatographic immunoassay drug test cups (6 to 14 panels, branded ClearRapids, BluRapids, AllTest, and Platinum+), single- and multi-panel test dip cards (Healgen, Wondfo), alcohol screening devices (AlcoMate breathalyzers, Alco-Screen saliva strips), and specimen collection supplies (Tanner Scientific vacuum and 95kPa ClickLock cups, biohazard transport bags, nitrile exam gloves). Flagship product differentiators include ultra-sensitive 1 ng/mL fentanyl detection covering pharmaceutical fentanyl and illicit analogs (carfentanil, acetylfentanyl, fluorofentanyl), built-in temperature verification strips, leak-proof screw caps, and SAMHSA-calibrated cut-off thresholds.

The business runs a direct-to-consumer and direct-to-institution model with three channels: an e-commerce storefront at drugsofabusetests.com, a phone-sales line (800-331-2716) staffed for custom-kit consultation and bulk orders, and a volume-pricing request workflow for high-volume testing programs. Pricing is unit-based with deep volume discounts (e.g., $3.07/unit at 25 units down to $1.84/unit at 1,000+ units on the ClearRapids 12-panel cup), a $250 free-shipping threshold, and custom configurations including non-THC panels for state-specific cannabis regulation. Customer segments span healthcare facilities (medical clinics, hospitals, urgent care, occupational health), workplace testing programs, substance-abuse treatment centers, correctional facilities and probation programs, community outreach programs, and private employers across the United States. Geographic scope is domestic-only, with no international shipping indicated.

The company self-describes as the 'largest importer of drug screening products in the country' and operates from a single Lakewood Ranch, Florida headquarters. Manufacturing is outsourced to third parties (Mercedes Scientific, Tanner Scientific, AllTest, Healgen, Wondfo); the in-house value-add is import, distribution, brand management, regulatory positioning (CLIA waiver, FDA 510(k) clearance on selected SKUs), and e-commerce execution. No venture capital or private equity backing is disclosed; the entity is privately held under the Mercedes Medical, LLC parent.
