1.) The purposes of a drug test
- The purpose of a drug test is to look for drug use and misuse, and it may be used for different purposes which includes:

•Using any illegal drugs, such as cocaine or club drugs
•Misusing prescription medicines, which means taking prescription medicines in a different way or for a different purpose than your provider prescribed. Examples of drug misuse include using a prescription pain reliever to relax or taking someone else's prescription.
•Employment. Employers may screen you for drugs before hiring you. After you're hired, they may test you to check for on-the-job drug use. If you have a work accident, you may be tested to see whether drugs or alcohol were involved.
•Sports. Professional and other athletes are often tested for drugs that are used to improve performance, such as steroids that help build muscle.
•Drug treatment. Drug testing may be used to monitor treatment in programs for drug or alcohol use disorder.
•Legal evidence. Testing may be part of a criminal or motor vehicle accident investigation. Drug screening may also be ordered as part of a court case.
