Product Code: A00035
The drug abuse testing market was valued at $5.0 million in 2023, and is projected to reach $8.8 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 6% from 2024 to 2033.
Drug abuse testing refers to the scientific process of identifying the presence of illicit drugs, prescription medications, or their metabolites in a person's system. This testing is conducted using biological specimens such as urine, blood, saliva, hair, or sweat to determine if an individual has used specific substances. Drug abuse testing is a critical tool in workplace safety, clinical diagnostics, legal investigations, and rehabilitation programs.
Alarming increase in prevalence of substance abuse disorders worldwide is a primary driver of the drug abuse testing market. According to a report by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), over 284 million people aged 15-64 used drugs at least once in 2022, underscoring the need for widespread testing. In addition, rise in awareness about the impact of substance abuse on public safety, such as impaired driving and drug-related crimes, has driven the demand for routine drug testing in law enforcement and traffic monitoring programs. Moreover, increase in global drug availability significantly contributes toward the market growth. For instance, the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) reported in 2024 that Europe is experiencing unprecedented availability of various drugs, with cannabis being the most commonly used illicit drug, followed by cocaine. Furthermore, the availability of cost-effective and easy-to-use home drug testing kits has seen increased adoption among individuals and families, contributing to market expansion. However, sophisticated drug testing techniques, such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, are expensive. This can limit their adoption, especially in resource-constrained healthcare settings. Fear of societal judgment and discrimination may deter individuals from undergoing drug testing voluntarily, further affecting the growth of testing programs. On the contrary, technological innovations, such as point-of-care testing devices, improved immunoassays, and mass spectrometry techniques, have made drug testing more accurate, faster, and accessible. Such developments are expected to offer remunerative opportunities for the expansion of the global market during the forecast period.
The drug abuse testing market is segmented into product & service, sample type, end user, and region. By product & service, the market is divided into analyzers, rapid testing devices, consumables and laboratory services. The analyzers segment is further segmented into immunoassay analyzers, chromatography analyzers and breath analyzers. The rapid testing devices is subdivided into urine testing devices and oral fluid testing devices. The consumables segment is further categorized into assay kits, sample collection cups, calibrators & controls, and others. Depending on sample type, the market is segregated into urine, oral fluid, breath, hair, and other samples. By end user, it is fragmented into workplaces & schools, criminal justice systems & law enforcement agencies, research laboratories, and hospitals. Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
