Drug Testing Market

Drug Testing Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Product Type (Consumables, Instruments, and Rapid Testing Devices), by Sample Type (Urine Samples, Oral Fluid Samples, Hair Samples, and Other Samples), by Drug Type (Alcohol, Cannabis/Marijuana, Cocaine, Opioids, and Others), and by End-Users (Drug Testing Laboratories, Workplaces, Hospitals, Healthcare, and Others) Forecast Period (2022-2028)

Published: Dec 2022 | Report Code: OMR2027178 | Category : Medical Devices | Delivery Format: /

Drug testing market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 16.1% during the forecast period. The increasing prevalence of drug addiction and illicit drug consumption is expected to drive the growth of the drug testing market during the forecast period. Additionally, the key players are continuously contributing to the growth of the market by adopting various strategies including new devices and drug launches, along with various strategic initiatives to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in February 2021, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. partnered with Mindray Medical International Ltd. Through this partnership, Thermo Fisher Scientific aims to address the requirements of customers in commercial labs, hospitals, and the criminal justice field. Moreover, to provide access to drug testing both companies entered into an agreement to offer the FDA-cleared and Health Canada–approved BS-480 (400 tests/hour) and BA-800M (800 tests/hour) analyzers’ to toxicology labs.

Segmental Outlook 

The global drug testing market is segmented based on product type, sample type, drug type, and end-users. Based on the product type, the market is sub-segmented into consumables, instruments, and rapid testing devices. Based on the sample type, the market is sub-segmented into urine samples, oral fluid samples, hair samples, and other samples. Based on the drug type, the market is further sub-segmented into alcohol, cannabis/marijuana, cocaine, opioids, and others. Based on the end-users, the market is augmented into drug testing laboratories, workplaces, hospitals, healthcare, and others. Among these, the urine samples sub-segment is expected to hold a considerable share of the market due to the ease of collection, and concentrations of drugs and metabolites tend to be high in the urine. 

Among the product type, the consumables sub-segment is expected to hold a prominent share of the drug testing market over the forecast period. The increase in the launch of advanced consumables by key players to provide improved solutions to make testing easy, accurate, and fast is expected to accelerate the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in August 2019, MedTest Dx, Inc. introduced an improved line of Clinitox calibrators and controls for confirmation testing at the 2019 American Association for Clinical Chemistry (AACC) Annual Scientific Meeting. The new product line provides laboratories performing confirmation testing with a comprehensive, reliable, easy-to-use, and customizable calibration along with controlled solution designed for accuracy and efficiency.

Regional Outlooks

The global drug testing market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). The market can be analyzed for a particular region or country level as per the requirement. Among these, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to hold a considerable share of the drug testing market during the forecast period, owing to the increase in drug abuse and drug consumption in the region. 

Global Drug Testing Market Growth, by Region 2022-2028

Global Drug Testing Market Growth, by Region

North America is Expected to Hold a Significant Share of the Global Drug Testing Market

Among all regions, North America is expected to hold a significant market share during the forecast period. The presence of drug testing market players such as LabCorp., Abbott, Quest Diagnostics Inc., and others are accelerating the growth of the drug testing market. These key players are implementing extensive expansion and acquisition strategies to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in November 2021, LabCorp. acquired Toxikon, a contract research organization (CRO) that delivers non-clinical testing services. This acquisition extends LabCorp’s portfolio of full-service drug development and medical device solutions. Additionally, Toxikon’s strategic location allows LabCorp. to further engage with large pharmaceutical companies and biotech firms operating in the region. Moreover, Toxikon will also complement LabCorp’s existing non-clinical medical device efficacy and safety testing.

Market Players Outlook

The major companies serving the global drug testing market include Abbott Laboratories, Agilent Technologies, Inc., Alfa Scientific Designs, Inc., Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Clinical Reference Laboratory (CRL), Inc., Drägerwerk AG & CO. KGaA., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in April 2019, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. launched CEDIA Mitragynine (Kratom) Assay, a drug of abuse test. The drug supports calibrators and controls. The drug is able to run on commonly used clinical chemistry analyzers, allowing a broad spectrum of laboratorians to test for the presence of Kratom. Additionally, the test is for criminal justice and forensic use only.
