Los Alamos Municipal Court invites the public to stop by our office, located at 2500 Trinity Suite (next to Ashley Pond) and receive a free drug test.  These urine tests will test for 15 different drugs, including Fentanyl and alcohol for up to the last 2-5 days of consumption.  Court staff will provide instructions on how to administer and interpret results of the tests.  

The court has provided free drug tests to the public upon request for the past decade.  This service allows parents who are concerned about teen or adult family members to have access to accurate data to help families seek treatment and support. NARCAN is also available upon request.  

Last year, the Municipal Probation Department updated the drug tests to include a larger variety of drugs.  A standard drug test may only test for six different types of drugs, and that does not include Fentanyl  The test provided by the Municipal Court Probation Department will test for the following 15 drugs:
