This blood test measures the THC-COOH. THC is a product contained in Cannabis or weed and can be determined as a measure of how long ago someone started using cannabis or weed has smoked. THC is excreted quickly, within a few hours.

What is the difference between THC and THC-COOH?

THC is the psychoactive part of cannabis which makes you 'stoned'. In the liver, THC is converted into THC-COOH within a few hours. This is a metabolite and remains in the blood for longer, a few weeks or even months before it is completely broken down. The breakdown rate differs for everyone, because THC-COOH is stored in fat cells. The more weed you smoke, the longer it takes for all the THC-COOH to be broken down.

Can I request this Cannabis / THC test myself or does a psychiatrist do that?

You can also order this test yourself. However, this is often done by a psychiatrist in the context of a health declaration for the CBR done. The results will then be sent to your requesting psychiatrist. The THC-COOH blood test for the CBR is a new method. Previously, the determination was made in the urine, but the blood test is more accurate.

The results of this test will take 10-15 days. Only if you request the test yourself will the results be sent to you!

How does a THC-COOH blood test differ from over-the-counter tests?

For blood tests, we always use venous sampling. This is the gold standard for blood collection. Over-the-counter tests, such as a finger prick test, use the capillary route for blood collection. These do not always give the same results and the accuracy depends on how, where, and with which technique the collection is done. The advantage, of course, is that the test is easier and less painful to take.

What payment options are available for a THC-COOH blood test?

You can always pay with iDeal and credit card (VISA, Mastercard, and Amex). This also includes Apple Pay. The phlebotomists at the collection location cannot accept cash payments.

The results of Labplusarts can be shared with your general practitioner at your request. However, you can also easily arrange this yourself by downloading the result in PDF format. Because we use comparable test methods as the general practitioner, the results are interchangeable and comparable so that comparisons can be made well.
