Drug of Abuse Testing Market and Forecast to 2032

GURUGRAM, India - Oct. 14, 2025 - PRLog -- The global drug of abuse testing market was valued at US$ 7,391 Million in 2024, and is predicted to reach US$ 11,715 Million by 2032. The global prevalence of illicit drug use continues to rise, presenting significant public health and socioeconomic challenges. According to recent estimates, approximately 296 million individuals aged 15 to 64 used illicit substances at least once in the past year. Among them, 39.5 million are affected by drug-use disorders, which often contribute to a broader spectrum of health complications, including heightened incidence rates of HIV, hepatitis, and tuberculosis.

Drug of abuse testing has become a critical tool to facilitate appropriate medical intervention, monitor substance use, and enforce compliance with legal and organizational drug policies. Drug of abuse testing typically involves the identification of illegal or misused prescription substances through various biological matrices, including urine, blood, saliva, hair, and sweat. The drug of abuse testing market is witnessing strong growth, fuelled by several key factors. These include stringent regulatory mandates requiring drug testing, rising levels of alcohol and substance abuse, increasing drug-related mortality rates, and the expanded use of testing protocols within workplaces and institutions. Additionally, the growing global production and trafficking of illicit drugs, along with enhanced government efforts to combat substance abuse, are further driving demand. However, market expansion is being constrained by certain challenges, including the progressive legalization of some substances in various jurisdictions and a shortage of skilled professionals to conduct and interpret tests effectively.
