Intended Use
The Dräger-DrugTest 5000 Analyzer is a device for detect-
ing drugs in oral fluid samples collected with the Dräger
DrugTest 5000 Test-Kit (In-Vitro Diagnostic Medical
Device). The mea-surement is based upon an optical evalu-
ation of the immunochemical test strips contained in the
Test-Kit.
The system is an easy and quick test procedure for detect-
ing amphetamines, benzodiazepines, cannabinoides,
cocaine metabolites, metamphetamines and opiates. Test
results are displayed immediately after finishing the analy-
sis and can be stored in the analyzer, printed with the
Dräger Mobile Printer or transferred to a PC via the inte-
grated USB interface.
The system is suited for stationar y as well as for mobile use.

wait 15 min. for temperature compensation) .
Only open pouches immediately before use, remove
test cassette from the pouch.
Remove the protective cap of the test cassette from oral
fluid collector and give the test cassette to the subject –
