The Rapid Response™ GHB Test Strip (Urine) can detect the presence of GHB in human urine or beverage at concentrations from 10 µg/mL to 50 µg/mL.
Gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) is a colorless, odorless chemical and has become one of the most dangerous illicit drugs of abuse today. It has become known as one of the “date rape” drugs, and there is an increasing trend that GHB is being used as a recreational drug.

Use the color chart on the Rapid Response™ GHB Test Strip (Urine) pouch or on the color card to interpret GHB levels at the three indicated semi-quantitative GHB concentrations. The 0 μg/mL level indicates that no significant GHB is present, the 10 μg/mL level and the 50 μg/mL level indicates a presumptive positive.
