How is saliva testing better at detecting recent cannabis use?

Watch Dr. Himanshu Bhatia, Founder & CEO of RICOVR Healthcare, answer how saliva testing is better!

Saliva testing is the best method for detecting recent marijuana use because it is fast, easy to use, accurate, and non-invasive. These oral fluid tests provide reliable results that act as an effective deterrent to workplace cannabis use. The detection time for saliva-based testing more closely aligns with the 10-hour potential impairment window for cannabis. Depending on the THC cut-off level, it can detect recent use within the past 12 hours or less. As marijuana legalization becomes more widespread, saliva testing is a fair, practical, and effective solution for organizations that need to detect recent marijuana use among their employees and for law enforcement purposes.
