The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition – Text Revision, gives characteristic findings for patients with drug dependence. (See Diagnosing substance dependence and related disorders, page 286.)
Various tests can confirm drug use, determine the amount and type of drug taken, and reveal complications. For example, a serum or urine drug screen can detect recently ingested substances.
Characteristic findings in other tests include elevated serum globulin levels, hypoglycemia, leukocytosis, liver function abnormalities, positive rapid plasma reagin test results because of elevated protein fractions, elevated mean corpuscular hemoglobin levels, elevated uric acid levels, and reduced blood urea nitrogen levels.
